Supersonic; One Year to Hennepin 100

Tuesday: COMMUTE 7 miles, and canceled PT
Wednesday: COMMUTE 7 miles, SWIM 600y, ELLIPTICAL 20 mins, and LOWER STRENGTH 20 mins
Thursday: COMMUTE 7 miles, ELLIPTICAL and ROW 20 mins each, and TREADMILL 1.5miles/30 mins with 4 or 5 1-minute runs at a very slow speed; FOAM ROLL and STRETCH 10 mins. (PT also canceled).
Friday: rained out of commute. didn't get to gym.

I don't usually log XT and strength stuff, but I'm short on other things I'm doing and since I'm treating this as part of my recovery/rebuilding/new-normal, I'm including it. Besides, it makes me look busy. 

The ankle pain after Saturday's run continued into Tuesday, mostly after I'd been sleeping. I did some jogging down a hall Wednesday at work and pained it again. Then Thursday I do all that in the morning, including 4-5 minutes of 4.0 speed treadmill running and for the rest of the day it feels fine?! Huh? What seems to cause the change? 

I wasn't able to go to PT (both were like 1pm) middle of the day so I've been doing a little bit all day long. When I'm standing, walking, waiting, I stretch and try to get my knee forward. It seems like I make no progress, but I'm not measuring so how would I know for sure? 

I'm really enjoying my up-at-430am then to-the-gym mornings, except I'm already falling asleep by mid day. I need to get to bed earlier. While I was in the legs workout Weds, Supersonic played on the radio. I've been ready to add that song to the Songlist but haven't done it yet!
