Snowing again! 5.5 miles on the TM in an hour. Nice and easy.

Well, here I am getting frustrated...... again. I spent a total of 20 min the mill yesterday walking at 3mph, and when I got done, my achilles hurt. I iced it, stretched it about 4 times, slept with my night splint and this morning IT STILL HURT!<br><br>
I am in the process of getting ART for it and it does seem to be helping. I just went from going weekly to every two weeks because he said most of the scar tissue is gone.<br><br>
So why is it still hurting when I only walk???? <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"><br><br>
I have been over cautious because I have always read that the achilles is very slow to heal and its very easy to re-injure it. But I have been being cautious for 3 years now! I wanna run again, without worrying about being in pain or re-injuring it!<br><br>
Everytime I start to feel optimistic, this happens.<br><br>
Am I EVER going to be able to run and enjoy it again!<br><br><br>
tigger, I need one of your hemp shirts....... to smoke! <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br><br><br>
sorry for the whine <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

That's OK Sierra, you never whine so you're just using one of your free passes! Maybe see a sports therapist to find out why it's still sore?<br><br>
Second run was 3.9 miles of easy 4/1 runwalk in 45 min.

It was in the 60's and humid for me today. I felt good at the start so I explored a new trail today. I ended up with an 8.15 mile run in 1:11:52.

Didn't quite make the 60s here...only mid 50s...actually wore a long sleeve t-shirt and shorts...winter must be coming.<br><br>
Just a brief run...about 2 miles...took less than an hour<br><br>
Doing 13.1 mile training run tomorrow morning with a group from the store.

ok, since it looks like we are posting Saturday here.......<br><br>
I woke up today and my foot didnt hurt I decided to give it a try again.<br><br>
10 min on the mill, walking so slow it felt like heel, toe, repeat!<br>
30 min on the bike<br>
2 sets of weights<br>
10 min on the elliptical.<br><br>
So far so good, now off to the hot tub for some r and r! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

I was only planning a short 4 mile run but decided against it, as I want to be ready for long run on Sunday.
