Post-race week

Monday, day off from work and rest, knee is tight and pained but gets better over the day
Tuesday, full work day, feeling great!
Wednesday, full work day, awful tired. Wonder if depression setting in?
Thursday, 2mi run in FP before I rolled my ankle :( :( :(
Friday, one hour on the trainer
Saturday, worked on the house
Sunday, worked on the house, ankle still lightly pained.

Regarding Thursday, I was running on automatic and feeling OK but sluggish when I stutter-stepped over some debris and rolled the ankle. I didn't get the tingly burn in the toes like I did 2 weeks ago, but the area under the fibular ankle bone hurts. It's a defined, acute pain when weighted and when I rotate the ankle around.

Overall, recovery is better so far than CDA. After that race, I had sore foot soles and pained/tingly shoulders and neck. My mood swung low Weds and Thurs at which point I realized that I'm not resting or napping enough to promote a fast recovery.

And so ends September.
