My feet are feeling pretty beat up so I'm going to take it easy for a lot of next week. I'm convinced my ankle issue has stemmed from running in the Cadence 2s.
Happy New Year!
Running-wise this has been a great year for me. I appreciate everything you've done over the last 12 months more than I can say.

The last two weeks I've been running more on the left side of the road. Sometimes my legs feel out of balance so I change where I run. I'm pretty sure that and taking some corners really fast are why my ankle's bothering me.
Ankle feels good at the end if the week. I took this as a down week and will jump into the 50M next week. I'll fill in my times Wednesday.
Happy Holidays! It's been great year of running!

Since I hit 40 on Saturday and had been running everything a little faster than last week I figured I didn't need to add miles so I relaxed Sunday.
Overall, I feel really good with the pace and am finally going to add AM runs this week so I'm not dragging a bunch of runs out during the week. AM runs really force me to run slower which I have had a hard time doing lately. Maybe it's the caffeine, but I feel great in the evenings and enjoy running for a long time. I'm just trying to balance the miles with the pace so I don't get sick, injured, or bored.
I'm not bothering to list it, but I'm doing situps, backups, eccentric calves, and band walks regularly through the week.
