Personal: I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10. I've been running since 1982. I never get "basic" injuries. I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping down on my peroneal nerve. Favorite Blogs: |

| Tonight ran an excellent 8.6 miles tonight in near course record in town in 53:54! Legs really burned the first mile from yesterday's workout, yet still went through in 6:31. Then dropped down to sub 6:20 pace and went through half way in 27:40. Picked up down to 6:00 pace but could only hold that for 1.5 miles, went back up to 6:20 pace w/ last mile in 6:02. Felt totally awesome today, temp was warm, 48 so it was just T-Shirt and shorts. Achilles was a little tight about 40 minutes in, but felt better after just a few minutes. Watching the Boston indoor games before I went out really helped. |

| Today ran a pretty decent 8.5 mile recovery run 1:02:39. Averaged about 7:25 pace overall. Started out around 7:40 ish and finished second half around 7:15 pace. Legs were pretty sore from the last two days. The Achilles was a little tender at points, especially after having to run on my toes through the mud out by the Rose-Hulman baseball fields. Temp was really warm 64 and windy. I may try to hit the track this week if the Achilles continues to improve. I've got some races coming up that I'd like to hit. |

| Ran a really tough 8 miles tonight from WW Middle School through Deming Park, Woodridge, Lawrin, etc. Really struggled as I felt really crappy all afternoon. I wanted to try to hit the track tonight because tomorrow we're supposed to have 30-50 mph winds... S'well. Can't complain too much as I'm trying to get the miles built back up. Did hit it in 58:39 w/ the last mile in 6:53. No trouble with Achilles tonight. |

| Did not run tonight. Weather got really crappy outside. 30 mph winds w/ gusts to 60 mph and rain. Tried to do 60 minutes on the Octane at home and only made it 30 minutes. I am totally spent from the last few days trying to build the mileage back up. Will still try to hit the track tomorrow or do something along those lines. |

| Ran a really tough 4 miles in 29:50. Really struggled and felt really crappy. Hardly got any sleep last night as I was up until 2 with work. Had dental appointment today, got pulled over on the way. After dentist, had really bad headache. Took about a half hour nap during lunch but ended up feeling worse. I went to WW Middle School track with the intention of doing some pace 800s. Everything felt bad and achilles was tender on and off (more radiated in lower calf actually). Temp wasn't too bad, 48 w/ 15 mph W breeze. Feel like I'm at square one. |

| Ran same course as yesterday with Jacki, 7.5 miles in 3 seconds under yesterday's time, 54:57. Still feeling better. No issues with Achilles. Temp cooled down a bit to 34 but still tolerable. May try to go long tomorrow. We'll see. |
