Ran the usual MWF course with Randy, but cut it two miles short. I could have gone the whole way, but I don't want to push it while coming back from the injury. I think I'll do 5 again tomorrow and try the 7 on Wednesday.

Ankle is still sore, especially moving side to side, turning corners. Randy said he was glad we cut it short because his knee was tightening up during the last mile.

Feeling sore today. The ankle is about the same, but the legs were really heavy. I guess that's what taking three weeks off will do. Plus, I pedaled for an hour last night, so I was feeling kind of wiped out. Going to do the 7-miler tomorrow.

Rough one this morning. I started out slow and sped up during the first 4 miles, but then dropped off to around 8:30 the rest of the way. Ankle is feeling a little better each day, but my legs feel weak from the time off. Just have to tough it out through this week and hopefully things will get better.

Meridian, ID (Treadmill) 6:30 am

I hate treadmills. But, it snowed last night and I don't think my ankles are ready to be slipping and twisting on the ice just yet.

I'm looking forward to next week because I'm hoping that since it won't be the first week back, it won't hurt so much. Ankle is feeling much better, still not 100%, but I have some pain in my legs and groin. Just starting up again aches and pains, I hope.

I felt like Randy was pulling me along the whole way, but during the last mile, he asked me "are we running faster or am I just tired?" So I wasn't the only one feeling tired.

I really didn't know how far I would end up running today. I chose a course with a few shortcuts back home. When I started out, I thought I would be cutting it really short because I was feeling sore, but those little pains went away soon. It was nice to get in a long-ish hard run. Good for the confidence. Ready for my day of rest and a good week next week.
