Success.  5 ez miles on smooth pavement.   My body feels out of balance from gimping around for a week but my ankle did ok.  I feel better after my run than I did before.  Now I will try to ease back into my training plan.  This was the second interuption to my training so I'm not sure about my sub 3 goal.  But heh, it feel great to be on the road again.

15 ez on JRP.  I probably ran to far after being off last week but oh well.

15 miles.  2:04:20.  8:17 ave pace.  164 bpm ave.  85 degrees.

Got hot and cooled off twice.  I really slowed down the last 2 miles, about 9 min/mile pace, maybe I should have only run 13 miles.  I guess that's the problem with an out and back. 

Ankle OK (just a bit stiff, hardly any soreness) but my stride is still not balanced.

City Creek.  After yesterday's stiff, sore, and tired run I almost blew off today's run.  I definately did not feel like heading out the door.  I did though and it ended up being a really good run.  I feel like I'm getting my groove back.  Perhaps it was the cooler temps and a bit easier effert.

I'm back to stiff, sore, tired.  7 recovery miles up City Creek.  6 half-harted 100 meter strides. 

Today is my last day of getting our rental ready!  One door and a piece of trim to paint, one window to fix, some clean up, and loading all my tools and junk into the car.  I've been working my butt off getting everything done and I really need a break.

I'm trying to make up for lost sleep and taking the whole day off from everything.  I'll do my run tomorrow.
