  1. RUN
    blah 2.6 mi 00:28 10:49 pace

    Clearly need more fuel to run.

  2. RUN
    alright 3.4 mi 00:36 10:42 pace

    Another slog, but this too shall pass.

  3. RUN
    alright 3.4 mi 00:36 10:42 pace

    Day 5 of no carbs/sugar made for a more difficult run than I expected, but necessary to get back on track after a winter of indulgence and reduced mileage. Trying to remember that Rome wasn't ... read more

    great Pilates--wunda chair 00:50

    Tendon stretch on 1 leg still feels like a form of torture, but I'm managing to extend my leg more and maintain my balance. Twist is starting to make sense, although I'm still a complete ... read more

  5. RUN
    alright 3.4 mi 00:36 10:33 pace

    In the plus column, the rain held off and the ankle seems to be holding up well. In the negative, the humidity is really sapping my energy. Need to get conditioned before liquid summer arrives.

  6. RUN
    alright 3.4 mi 00:36 10:43 pace

    Between the humidity and the nauseating smell of freshly cut grass, I wish I had brought water with me.

  7. FIT
    great Pilates--Cadillac 00:50

    Nothing like a workout on the Caddy to melt away work stress. Fun with hips off, the pull up, and splits before finishing with hanging.

  8. FIT
    good Pilates--reformer 00:50

    Ended with front splits, and increased the challenge by letting go of the bar. A bit scary, but an excellent test of balance.

  9. RUN
    good The usual 3.4 mi 00:36 10:36 pace

    Decided to give my usual route a try since, other than a little residual stiffness, my efforts to ease back in have been successful. Took a quick break while waiting to cross at a busy intersection... read more

  10. FIT
    great Pilates-Cadillac 00:50

    Hips off went better than expected, and teaser was solid (lowered the feet to to the ground and all). Still not sure how I'm supposed to do airplane without the springs clanging. Ballet stretc... read more

  11. RUN
    good Testing the Ankle Part IV 2.55 mi 00:28 10:47 pace

    So far so good. Took one untimed stretch break at 11:30, and ran the rest of the way in. Will try to fit in one elliptical workout this week (benefits of going backward) before trying my regular ro... read more

  12. RUN
    good Testing the Ankle--Part III 2.45 mi 00:26 10:40 pace

    No residual pain or swelling from my first day out, so decided to add a little time. Took a stretch break at 11 minutes, and ran the rest of the way in.

  13. RUN
    good Testing the Ankle Part II 2 mi 00:22 10:45 pace

    Decided to ease in since I've had a few weeks off. Ankle felt a little stiff/tight at first. Took an untimed stretch break after 10 minutes.

  14. FIT
    good Testing the ankle 3.26 mi 00:30 09:12 pace

    Alternated forward and backward movement. Cranked up the resistance, but still so much easier than running. Had some calf pain (in the leg w/ the ankle issues) the next day, so I either did too muc... read more
