Still Dealing with the Ankle

17¾ miles for the week

M – 0 miles, 74°F at 4AM
Tu – 0 miles, 77°F at 4AM
W – 5¼ miles, average pace 7:10 mpm on the track (mile splits were 7:43, 7:28, 7:15, 6:45, and 6:27) and ankle felt really good, 80°F at 7PM
Th – 4 miles, average pace 9:29 mpm, ankle just didn’t feel right, 78°F at 4AM
F - 0 miles, 81°F at 8AM
Sa – 7½, average pace 8:02 mpm, ankle didn’t quite feel right, overcast 80°F at 1PM [SeaC/NTrail-MBT/SeaC]
Su – 1 mile, average pace 8:45 mpm, I had a pretty steady pain in my right ankle at the foot so I turned around at the half-mile point, 81°F at 10AM [Ol]

I took all of Monday and today (Tuesday) off. This ankle is very frustrating. There's a local 5K Saturday morning on one of my favourite courses. I want to run it, but I doubt I'll be able to race it.

Have you called the doc yet? I finally broke down and called mine about the constant dull achiness in my hip. It's just enough to be bothersome. Not while running, but it hurts more at rest. Take care of that ankle!

I hope the ankle is better. Don't do anything you'll regret in that race!
