12.7 mile run basically on the DC/ Secret street loop but a little extended version on the south side of B-hills. 7:04 avg. Tried some KT tape for the first time and it seemed to feel a little better on the ankle. Now I just need the hammy/ groin/ quads/ hips to all loosen up:) Decided to keep the pace honest through out the run and just try and run though the pain in hopes of trying to "run out the soreness" and work through things. Felt so so over to the DC at just over 6 miles  then from there  up to River Road I ran around 5:50 pace. It didn't feel too bad or like I was crossing the red line. Got to the bridge and then brought the pace back down heading on the inner river trail over into BH. Again felt so so until I was about 2 miles from being done. Then I just got tight- see everything above including the ankle. Really labored the rest of the run hitting around 7:55 pace the last couple to close it out. Ouch. How am I so much worse now than I was a few weeks ago? !@@&(

Blame it on the bike. Once I started to cycle a little, running just seemed so much harder. You just need a little rest and your running will be fine. Keep your head up.

Thanks man. I wish I could blame it on the bike but I blame it on the wake board. One bad wreck July 1 and my ankle is still jacked. Now the rest of the body is following.
