Just trying to get back into the swing of running. I started out at 8:45 then dropped to 7:50-8:15 which felt good. Ankle feels pretty good, but I have to keep up on ART and massage. My plan is to just run low miles (20ish) for awhile and keep an eye on my ankle.
Fishing's still good. I went out on my buddy's father-in-law's bass boat Saturday. We got on the lake at first light and had some decent morning action. Between the three of us we had 15 fish landed and 10 that got off. One of mine was a good chain pickerel but it let go at the boat. Sadly, I am seriously thinking about getting a boat now...

04/14/2014 - 04/20/2014
I ran Monday and Saturday and things are ok, but not good. Its really frustrating that it feels the same as before the break. Monday was 8:45 and 8:20. Saturday was 8:20, 7:55, and 7:52.
The running feels fine, but I still have the stiffness in the morning and during the first quarter mile. I've been doing some massaging to try to break up whatever is keeping the tendon tight.
I'm going to run a few times a week for awhile and see how it goes. I'm not going to bump my miles up for awhile. I'm really sick of making the same bone-headed mistake.
I've been fishing a lot to stay busy. I got this 6# 12 oz fish a couple weekends ago. Biggest one ever. That was a great adrenaline rush.
I hope your running is going well.

Off again.
Everything feels good, but I'm going to give it another week to be safe. I'd rather dig my way out of a slight fitness deficit than risk re-injury. I'm starting to wonder if I was getting a little burnt out from constantly dancing with my ankle.
Glad you're getting motivated!
Nabbed this big girl last Friday. Fishing has been pretty good from the banks lately.

I ended up with a lot of social stuff this week hence all the missed days.
I'm probably going to take some of this week off. My ankle was bothering me a little last week and I don't want to risk re injury. It is only annoying and not painful. It isn't bothering me when I run, just in the morning and during the day at the office.
Also, I got bit by the Bass bug lately...last night I got a 3 pound 11 ounce pig out of a mud puddle that a friend says is the biggest to come out of it. His best at that spot is 3 pounds 5 ounces.

Man...The beginning of this week kicked my ass. I really have to stop loading most of my miles into a few days. It's just stupid.
I was thinking about doing 3 workouts a week - Monday Hills, Wednesday Long, and Saturday Intervals, Tempo, or Race...but I might need to stick to 2 workouts a week to start. Maybe Tuesday do either hills or long intervals (1K) and a long run Saturday or Sunday. The rest of the time I want to try doubles to get to 7-10 miles a day. I'm interested to see if I can manage it.

I need to start getting some intervals in on Saturdays. I'm thinking about doing hills on Monday, long run on Wednesday, and intervals, tempo, or race on Saturdays.
How is your local running community faring? Did Meg's Miles have success?
And how is your running going? Motivated yet?
