Chad's Runs

4 nice and slow miles because I don't want to make my achilles worse. It is still nagging at me after taking almost a week off. Well I got bored and was feeling good so I decided to see what I could get my average cadence up to over 4 minutes.  I managed a 175 which is excellent for me.  I haven't counted for a while so I'm pleased with how it went.  I also ran it at about a 7:00 min pace.  Well, when I finished the 4 minutes my achilles started to hurt again.  I limped on it and took a shortcut through a neighbor's yard to finish up.  I'll try again in a few days.

4 slow miles. I forced myself to keep a slow pace this time with periodic walks. This run was more to shake off the cobwebs and get my heart rate up. I loosened things up but my achilles was always nagging at me but wasn't getting worse. I finished off the run with no further pain so I'm pleased with the progress. I'll probably wait until Monday to run again.  (Father's and son's outing)
