| Veteran 279 Raeford, North Carolina | Subject: RE: I am going to run today Wow! I read your post and I feel like a slacker. I did a bit of drills earlier this morning and I'm going to go finish the swim workout this afternoon and finish it all with a run. Now, I really feel like a slacker because I know I'm not running as much as I should be doing. Thanks for reminding me that I need to get my foot out of my arse and start beating the pavement more! |

I still feel discomfort in the Achilles but I've been have clearance to try an easy run. I'm gonna do 20 minutes. The first time I read that I thought you said: "...try an easy run. I'm gonna do 20 miles" My jaw hit the floor for a second. Good luck with the run, hopefully you'll be cleared to get back at it soon. Better now than mid-season right? |

| Master 1286 Mt Pleasant, SC | Subject: RE: I am going to run today Slow and easy, then shut it down after 20 minutes even if you feel like you can continue. Cool down & stretch. Recheck in the AM. Good luck Kevin |

| Subject: RE: I am going to run today Take it easy and listen to your body. Last time I was starting back from an injury, it helped to remind myself that the goal wasn't to run a certain distance or pace that day, but to be able to run again the next day and the day after that. Good luck and enjoy! |

| Champion 11989 Philly 'burbs | Subject: RE: I am going to run today Hey all. Thanks for the support! Well, I did it. It was short and slow (2.2 miles in 22:25 for a 10:11 pace) but relatively pain free. Discomfort yes, but no real pain. I was careful not to push too hard or go too far. I did have all those thoughts about how good I felt and how I could go farther and harder but I resisted. I stretched well before and after (I know, some folks are very anti pre-stretch but I am not) am feel no worse now than I did before the run. I may ice just because but don't feel that I "need" it. |
