Achilles real sore. May be looking at some more time off, or at least increased x-training

PMI: Canals + neighborhoods - 29:50

Started out really easy and picked it up just a little bit. Achilles sore but runable at slow speeds. As much as I hate to neglect leg speed and strength, I think I need to bag strides and drills for the time being and focus on running mileage as slowly as I need to without hurting the achilles more.

PMII: Borah track - 59:18

Started at 11:30 p.m. Suffice to say, I had the track to myself. Tried to keep it easy and not injure the achilles. Ran just a shade under 8 min pace.

Also walked 45 minutes on the greenbelt, lifted easy for 15 minutes and biked steady for about 30 minutes today.

Run to gym - 22:32

Planned an hour easy, but this is all I could do. Achilles really sore and I was sick of limping along. I think I need to just play this thing by ear and not try to rush it. If it means a few days or even a few weeks of cross training, I guess that's what I will do.
