2 miles very easy with my little brothers.  If I can get them to run on a regular basis they will both be really good runners.  But we'll see.  Then 5.5 miles on my own.  No watch.

Easy run.  Nothing special.  Broke in the new shoes.  It feels good to not feel every pebble in the road.

Easy peasy run.  Achilles tendon randomly started hurting like the dickens at about 2 miles.  Then at about 3 miles it quit.  Feels a hair tight at the moment, but not bad.  Weird.  Will keep an eye on it.  Probably just one of those taper-time phantom injuries.

Sluggish, sore run today.  Doesn't make much sense.  I don't know why, but my body is really not liking this whole rest thing.  I have felt more sore and tired this week than any of my hard weeks.  Maybe it's the new shoes?  Same as old ones, but I guess after 1000 miles in the same pair a new pair might take some adjustment.  Achilles tendon is still sore, although the pain is no longer sharp and has moved more down into the ankle.  It is an improvement though.  Hopefully it's back to 100% within the next couple of days.

Felt much better today.  Achilles is still sore, but noticeably stronger than yesterday.  Didn't hurt after a little time warming up.

Got up early and ran before work.  Run was great.  Achilles feels near 100% again.  No problems.  Whew!
