16 miles.  It was pretty slow, but I did it without too much trouble.  I felt like I could have gone further when I was done.  I was half tempted to run again tonight.

10 easy miles.  Calves were pretty sore for the first 1/2 mile, felt good after that.  Ran a little faster then yesterday.

5 easy miles.  Achilles tendion pretty dang sore.  I'm starting to think Sasha knows what he's talking about. 

First 1/2 mile tendion really tight, didn't get worse and loosened up a bit.  It hurt for the duration of the run, but didn't get  any sharp pains ofranything.  I decided not to overdue it and only went 5 miles. 

By the time I was done, my tendion felt a little tighter then it did when I started, it hurt just having my shoe rubbing on it.  I popped about 800mg of Ibuprofen and iced the crap out of it. 

Add on from yesterday:

Tendion has a wierd looking knot in it.  It doesn't hurt any more then it did, and didn't tighten up overnight.  Took another 800mg of Ibuprofen.  I'll see how it feels and go out this after noon for another 10 after work.  I may end up shutting it down after a few.  I've always got Sunday to rest, but we'll see what happens.

5 easy miles.  Tendion still pretty sore, stiffened up towards the end.  It did feel better then yesterday.  I wanted to do 10, but I thought I would be risking injury. 

Did the last mile in 6:45 just because I was curious if going a little faster would make it hurt more, it didn't.
