went out for 8 and the achilles tightened up at about 4 or 5 miles.  I guess I should have gone on a shorter run.

got in 4 - the achilles was pretty tight by the end.  I find that I'm trying to land differently so that I don't over stretch it.  

argh

The achilles felt ok today - not 100% but better.  Icing it again afterwards.  upper 40's and pretty windy out there today

Ran two miles with Sawyer - his longest distance ever!  Then I ran two at the track while he waited.  It wasn't quite the distance I wanted but that's ok.  Didn't ice the achilles, per Paul's recommendation. Woke up this morning (Sunday) and there is still no soreness to the touch.  It's been like that for a few days now.  I take that as a good sign I suppose.
