Puerto Rico: My wife and I are on a company trip for meeting sales goals last year.  It is really pretty here and good time relaxing. I have been doing some cross training on the bike and core work but haven't blogged it.  Today was the first day that I ran in over a week.  I ran on the TM since it was almost 90 outside and I didn't think my body would make the adjust well for the cold temps we have been having.  I felt good running and the foot didn't cause me any problems.  I had a few aches but nothing bad and felt good the whole time after I warmed up.  I am going to take it very easy and see if I can get over this injury.

Puerto Rico:  I had a little time before dinner today and squeezed in 4 miles on the TM.  I felt good and the foot didn't cause me any problems.  My legs were a little heavy and didn't have much energy but it was good to get some miles in. I am going to continue to try to build back up slowly and keep the achilles problem under control.
