I needed to see how my achilles was feeling.  I ran an easy 5 miler.  I started at my house, ran down 48th south, hopped on the river trail until Millrace park, and then ran through the neighborhood home.  My achilles really hurt for the first 10 minutes, but then seemed to warm up.  It still hurt, but was bearable.

Welcome to the blog!

Yes, welcome! Sorry about your achilles trouble!

Did you leave your bio blank on purpose? Some people do, but just in case....

On my computer, it's been a little tricky to input new info--maybe yours is the same. If you want to put in your goals and stuff like that, log in, then wait while these little rectangles change sizes for a while. Then click on the white line close to the bottom of the top box. Then click on the small green arrow in the top left corner. THEN you can finally write out your goals and stuff. You probably know all this, so I'll just be embarrassed in advance, but anyway, it's always nice to have another girl on the blog, and good luck with your training!
