I blew off my Tuesday run, I had played hoop earlier in the day and I just didn't feel like I had the legs for it. I think my hoop days are coming to an end, at least on days that I am scheduled to run. I don't want to quit playing hoops because the guys I play with are terrific people and we have a ton of fun, and for the first time in a decade my jump shot shows signs of returning to form. (Stu, you definitely couldn't check me right now!!)
I ran eight miles last night, legs felt great and the wind was fine too. My ankle gave me a lot of trouble, it was tight the first mile as always then loosened up. Somewhere around mile six it began to throb pretty bad and by the time I finished I had shooting pains in the ankle. I limped the last half of a mile. I spent the night pounding Motrin and beers with a bag of ice on my ankle. I have a few days off now, hopefully it will heal up a bit. If it doesn't, I'll need to see a doctor because there is now way I can run a full 26 with the pain I finished with last night.
That's all for now, heading on vacation, I'll check back Monday...ross
