I ran 5 EZ miles on the TM at 1% incline in 40:00 this morning.  Felt great.  No foot pain.  I was thinking about a 6th mile, but decided not to press my luck.  I'm trying to decide if I should wear my orthotics with my foot taped or not.  I wore them this morning, but I may try to run without them Wednesday.  I felt like my old self running without pain today.  I hope it lasts this time.

Weight training followed by 20 minutes stair speed intervals--2.9 mile running equivalent.

My foot still feels good, but I'm having a hard time making my tape jobs last more than a couple days.  According to the packaging, each tape job should last five days.  I do think it is making a difference though.

I took the kids to the gym tonight while Doone was at mutual and snuck in a 6 mile TM run at 1% incline. I ran the first 4 at an easy 8 min pace then gradually sped up and did mile 5 in 7:15 then mile 6 in 6:30. It felt good to let the legs run a bit. It's been a while. I had a few seconds of foot tightness during the last mile but nothing that lasted and and now my foot feels fine. I didn't wear my orthotics, just used the KT tape. I hope I am closing the door on this miserable injury.

Total run 6 miles 45:45

I did get my run in this morning, but I am just getting around to blogging it. It has been a busy Saturday.

I ran 6 miles on TM at 1% incline. I did the first 5 easy at 7:30s, then was feeling good and did the 6th at 6:30 which felt pretty good too. No foot pain!!!!!

Total run 6 miles 44:00
