Today was another easy run to test out my ankle. Like sat. the first mile my ankle was a little sore. But after that it seem to loosen up and felt pretty good.  Did'nt really push it ast all juszt tryed to keep a comfy pace. I think the heat kind of got to me, but we will just have to try and get used to it again. My total time was 1:02:40 with an average pace of 9:57.

Another easy does run today. My ankle is still a little sore  from being sprained  a weel and a half ago. But it is comong along and seems to lossen up after a mile warm up. It is amazing how much leg strength you can loose in a week of not running. I can feel a difference when doing hills. Hopefully it well come back soon. My total time was 1:23:21, with an average pace of 10:09.

Very slow today just trying to get back some kind of rythum. My ankle seemed to lossen up alot sooner today,so I think it is getting closer to being 100% maybe we are at 80%. We wont press to hard just try and keep her steady. Nice rain some thunder during my run today, it felt kind of good to get wet from good ol Mother Nature. My total time today was 1:22:51 with an average pace at 10:06.

Just another low key run today and try to keep it simple until I feel good about my ankle recovery. It was 100 degrees when I got home and on the road for my run. Hot, Hot, Hot. My legs have felt a little on the tired  side this week, I know that last weeks lay off kind of hurt me a little. But we will get back into the rythum soon. My left leg is the one with the bad ankle, and it feels srtonger than my right one, pretty weird stuff. My total time today was 1:10:42, with an average pace of 10:06.

I have missed my sat. morn long runs the past few weeks, it was wonderful to feel good and get in an early morning run for a change. My ankle is coming along and is around 85% to 90% there, so I hope in another week or so I will be through this battle it has been a rough couple of weeks. It was nice to meet my Bro. Clay out on the run today he was patient enough to do a few slow miles with me. My total time today was 3:07:50, with an average pace of 10:18.
