After a few stormy days, this morning was wonderfully calm and clear. I caught a good window to run. Mike is out of town, so I ran from home to Illahee State Park and down to the beach there, came back up the trail and then took Perry Avenue to Illahee Preserve. Did a big loop in that forest, then back. At about 50 minutes, when I was in the preserve, my right achilles tightened up. I stopped and stretched, but it stayed pretty tight. On Perry when I was returning, at maybe the 1:20 mark, it completely seized up. Different feeling than a cramp, it's more of a specific soreness right where the achilles and calf come together. I walked 50 yards, then slowed the pace down for the rest of the run and trimmed off about 2 miles so not to push too hard. 1:39:00 glide 4 -- 18 |
