There are trails right near my house!!

Friday REST
Saturday RUN 4.5 miles out of 5.3, in about 65 mins
Sunday BIKE 10 miles on Liberty with LA

I didn't mean to run 4.5 miles, but I did. I stuck to 0.5 or 1.0 increment intervals, but really meant only 3 miles running and 2 miles walking. But it felt good and I did it and I found some great trail so close to the house in Greenview Park. You didn't even know you were in an urban area, just tall trees with yellow leaves and a soft dirt trail.

I mildly turned the right ankle around mile 3, slight twinge, but it didn't hurt for that. Afterwards both feet had pained tendons and soft tissues, and the medial incision area on the right ankle hurt the most. Here on Monday it still hurts, but it's not an injury. So far so good.

This coming week is a rest week, and instead of running Tues/Thurs I might wait until Weds/Fri to really let this heal and adapt. 

The ride was with LA on his new mountain bike, fresh out of a tune up at REI. What a joy to be able to ride with him, something I've been doing alone for the past few years. 

It was an unseasonably warm weekend, might be our last. And we made the best of it.
