JANUARY 14, 2016 (THURSDAY)
It was 11.91 miles on a great looking day in the county in Clayton of the state of Georgia. My running is getting better after the slight injury in last few miles of the Nashville Ultra 50 Mile Race on November 7. I thought I would never get over the sore right ankle that I managed to place into a hole in last three miles of the race. But, I did recover…only to have a sore, tight left Achilles tendon. It took a month to the day to recover with the right ankle and left me doing the mile-per-day recovery runs. Then, it took me about three weeks to get over the left side being messed up.
After a gradual build-up of mileage (which is still progressing), I am feeling a lot better getting some higher mileage under my belt. Today’s run in my Altra Paradigm 1.5’s was a good one. My fatigue level in the runs is less. I’m able to change the pace within the runs without crashing. I can walk into the house when finished instead of crawling. Progress!
Now, I’m ready to watch the GOP front runners in their debate tonight.
