AM - 7.2 Ankle is still pretty soft. I had a tough time breathing this morning. I could really taste the smoke in the air. After the run and shower I fell back to sleep for 30 minutes.

PM - 14.45 on a bike. I just don't want to push this ankle at this point. I figure running in the morning is about all I should be doing. I hate spinning, but I did get in a pretty hard effort. Why is it I can run forever and walk fine afterward but put me on a bike for a few miles and I feel like I could tip at any point.

18.45 - Spinning again. My ankle hurt so bad when I woke up this morning, my whole body in general is bad right now. I'm icing at night and on a limited running schedule and just hoping I can get to the starting line in two weeks healthy and still in race shape. I was really encouraged by my 5K a few weeks ago but right now I know I can't run well or even a marathon on how it feels. Here's hoping...

Bro-Lo run 3x3m w/.5 float. He did really good. My ankle felt ok but is still a ways from healthy. I still need to stay on the bike this week and next and run what I dare. Tried out my new Saucony shoes. They are way better than the triumphs. Glad I gave them another shot. I really like these ones.

Now it's time to ice the ankle and work in the yard.

Another day spinning 60min/18.5miles. Too much time on the ankle yesterday made it hurt pretty bad last night.

Ended up with a late night run. Finished it off at 11:40PM. Nikki needed to run some so she went out the first half with me then I repeated the loop hoping to get to race pace and see how I felt. Well.....ankle hurt pretty bad most of the run. Towards the end it kind of dulled so I'm a bit hopeful that it will at least do that during the race. At Jeff's suggestion I wore compression socks to see if they helped and I can't really say if the did, I'll see how it feels in the morning. First half of the run was at a pretty slow pace and then the last 6 were 6:48 (just starting to get the feel of turn over) 6:12, 6:56 (a pretty good climb), 6:37 (moderate climbing), 6:20, 6:19, 6:03(last 1/2 mile pace). I felt pretty decent on the flats, the down hill the ankle felt the worst. 

Looks like life might it really crazy, I think we are accepting the offer on our house tonight. With no plans on exactly what to do next it's a bit unsettling.  

If I count cross training miles (which I have been) I just passed last years miles tonight :)
