Runner’s diary, Monday and Tuesday

Two days of running for the price of one! Two days at four miles each with no ankle pain and only modest tightness in the hammies. Monday’s time was about 39 minutes, today’s 37:30. Ran Monday with Mike and Tuesday with Mike and Paul — working on synching our paces for that October distance race we’re training for.

Long Beach Island here we come!

Runner’s diary, Wednesday

I got on the treadmill today — bad ankle and ridiculous humidity — and managed three miles in 26:30. Trying to see where the ankle is after last week’s minor sprain, trying to avoid overworking it, but once I start running it’s hard not to push. That’s why I took yesterday off and lifted, road the bike (10 miles) and hit the rowing machine (2,200 meters).

Tomorrow, lifting.

Runner’s diary, Monday

Tested my sore ankle this morning for the first time since turning it on Thursday. I wrapped it tightly and got on the treadmill — didn’t want to get out and find it was too sore, then have to walk back. I did three miles with some pain in both knees — probably just tightness in the legs. I’ll give it another try tomorrow, keep my runs to three miles and work in some stationary bike and rowing machine and hope to push myself again next week.
