Just an easy run around the neighborhood and around campus, 6 of it with Joshua in the stroller.

I went 3.5 easy, then did 4 in 27:13, and then 1.5 in my fivefingers.  I know the tempo wasn't blazingly fast, but it was a nice change and really felt quite easy, which was encouraging.

My right heel/achilles was a little sore today, so I took it pretty easy.  I'll probably take tomorrow off.  It's not too bad, so I'm not worried, but I'll play it safe right now.  (It's also nice because in the past it's been my left leg that's had issues when I've been building miles.  And that feels fine right now.)

7 miles very easy, since my right foot was still a bit sore, and I wanted to give it some time to rest before tomorrow.

10 miles of walking/running since my right heel has been really sore.  I'm wondering if I sprained it.
