The 10 mile-milestone

<<< Foot Injuries Picross DS for the Nintendo DS >>>

November 4, 2007:

Is "mile-milestone" redundant?  I guess not.

This last weekend, Pam and I reached a milestone in our running.  We hit the big 1-0.  10 consecutive miles, baby!  The sense of accomplishment was, of course, amazing.  However, the physical aspects of it were not quite as wonderful.  I'm still having a sharp lingering pain in my right ankle that I hope will get better before it gets worse.  Neither Pam nor I could really do much in the way of moving for most of the day yesterday.  Luckily, our training program chose this week to be a week of "taking it easy," so that's just what I'm going to do.  Next week is 9 miles, so that should be slightly easier, since my body seemed to want to give out at around 8 miles yesterday, that one mile difference at the end makes ALL the difference.
