Chad's Runs

A couple of runs last week and this one all felt good.  A month ago I'd feel good durring the run then limp around for a few days so I decided to take some time off to get it better.  I started up again last week and iced my achilles after each run.  So far the run has been pain free after I warm up and I'm pain free durring the day as well.  Is that dependent on the ice?  I don't know, but either way I'm getting better.  I'm going to try for 15 miles this week and see here I am.

I'm over the achilles problem. I felt nothing after the first 5 minutes. Its now 5 or 6 hours later and I have no soreness and I didn't ice it either.  I'm not sure how fast I want to get back to the 30 to 35 miles a week I was running.

I've recoved from all injuries.  Time to start bumping up the miles.

Good run.  First time in the Altras since the achilles injury.  They're a little harder on that tendon than the Mirage is.  After warm up there was no sorenss and there hasn't been all day.

6 at night. I wanted to sleep in Saturday morning so I ran Friday night. The moon was out and bright. The main difference I noticed running Friday night instead of Saturday morning is all the campfire smoke in Willow Park. (cough, cough)

7 miles running south. No bugs. Last time I ran south there was more bugs than air.

6 easy miles.

Hat and gloves and rain. I guess fall is here.

My mornings are going to be busy these next few days so I ran last night and I'll find another night soon too.  It seems nobody runs at night and it wasn't even that late.  There was no moon so I decided not to take the trail and get some light from street lights.  This one was the fastest I've had in quite a while.  I'm feeling pretty good.
