I ran into Brigham City to the Cemetery, via Hwy 89, and back the same way. We had a ton of snow yesterday up this way and I figured the Highway might be the only thing cleared, and I was right. The way back was a lot faster, because I finally got going, it is actually uphill running home. I felt good and it was nice to average 7 minute miles on a run instead of 8-9 minute miles like I have been doing lately. Hamstring felt fine. My achilles is slowly getting better, the hot / cold therapy is effective, and the Strassburg Sock that Steve sent me seems to be helping too. 1:09:55 for the run.

Tendonitis is a bugger just keep it up and it will all be worth it.

I am, it is getting better slowly. At least it has never completely put me on the shelf.

James, good to see you back at it. Nothing crazy on your run today? You didn't stop at WW or anything, eat an imaginary pizza on the run. The blog traffic has been crazy over WW. If it works for people, their choice.

Stay cool, B of BS Rools out
