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 :)
