Nice relaxing run today, but I did it in a pretty nice pace.  I ran the River Heights loop I usually do, but my pace was around 8:38/mile.  That is quite a bit faster than my typical long run time of around 9:30/mile.

Today was a bit of an adventure.  First off I learned not to go to Texas Roadhouse the evening before a longer run.  It just makes it hard for about the first 4 miles.  

Also today disaster struck around mile 6.  I was running near Merlin Olsen Park when my ankle suddenly inverted badly and I went down.  It took me a few minutes to assess the damage and get up.  After walking home, I went to the Instacare and got a few X-rays.  Looks like i've got a nice sprain.  They said I should be okay to run on it now, but to take it easy for a few days.  I'm glad it isn't worse.  I'm within 10 weeks of the marathon.  I can't lose it now.
