My left ankle is still tight and sore in the mornings. It loosens up and is good during the day. I'm still doing a lot of calf raises for the Achilles, and am thinking about getting a PF splint to sleep in. I've noticed that holding it in that dorsiflexed position helps.
Ignoring the Friday's rain and Sunday's debacle, this week went well. I was a little tired from being sick last weekend, but it worked its way out by the first mile each run.
If you continue this simple practice every day, you will obtain some wonderful power. Before you attain it, it is something wonderful, but after you attain it, it is nothing special. ~ Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind

I had been feeling something coming on for awhile. I think running at noon two times this week pushed me over the edge. It was easily 100*+ for both runs. I ended up getting a sore throat Wednesday and nearly lost my voice Sunday. I am feeling a lot better today and will get back to my building mileage this week. I'm just going to consider this a down week before the 4-week push you mentioned last week.
Hope all is well with you.

I figured out it was my Peroneal Tendon that was bothering me. I did a lot of heat, calf raises, and light stretching all week. Over the week it calmed down significantly, but I have a little Achilles soreness which I am going to attribute to the increase in miles. Overall I feel good, but I am going to add the band walks just to be safe.
I hope everything is good on your end.

I needed a down week anyway. This morning everything is at 95%. I'm going to continue with the heat and massage. The PTT had been bothering me on and off for awhile, but was never an issue until after that last trail run. I could feel the terrain jamming my left ankle the whole way...
Also, my company (I finally got converted from a consultant to an employee) is having a 5K September 21 that I want to run as a tune up for December 7.

I died at the end and walked a little during 8 too because that section is uphill most of the way (probably why 1 was so fast). I always forget how harsh trail runs are. With all the rain a brisk run in a swamp is not so much fun. Ticks, mosquitoes, deer flies, and horse flies...and running with mud-filled, wet shoes and no socks...I may have to keep my trails runs on hold for awhile longer.
