Subject: Sore Ankles after long runs
Looking for a little direction on my sore ankles after long runs.  I am training for a 1/2 Mary on the 16th of Jan.  Ran one in October as well.  I am not concerned that I don't have the base to run 12- 14 mile training runs.  The issue is my right ankle on the inside especially is quite sore after my long runs.  I ice pretty regularly after for the next two days.  I wear neutral shoes (Pearl Izumi - mostly).  I am wondering if the neutrals are not providing enough supoort for these longer runs.  I have run in a park some times (softer ground) but I found that my knees tend to get sore under my patella after time goes on so I stopped running there (too much ground fluctuations). 

My initial thought are to maybe do my long runs on the softer surface and keep my mid-length runs on the harder surfaces. 

Any thoughts or others have this issue, if so what helped.  Need of some direction or insight.
