Today I ran pretty slow because I was sore and my achilles was pretty tight. My achilles started out great on the roads for the first 3 miles, but it really tightened up when I got to the park.  The trail at the park is hard packed gravel and sand, and the park was pretty windy;  maybe these factors affected my achilles.  During the last 3 miles back on the road, my achilles loosened up again and I ended with no pain,  Maybe I should stay on harder surfaces the next couple of days with my achilles because that seems to help.  Stretched afterwards.

I did a farlek and felt pretty good.  Only felt my achilles slightly.  I stretched afterwards.

Easy run, felt really good and didn't have any achilles pain.  Did core, some strength exercises, and stretched afterward.

Had to rush the run today to get on an airplane.  It was cold and windy but I think I ran pretty quick.

First day back in Colorado.  The weather was terrible and the ice trekkers I used were heavy, but I still think we ran pretty quick.  Stretched afterwards.

I had a really good, fast track session today.  I'm definitely getting used to the speeds I'll need for the 1500.  I did core, weights, stretching afterwards.
