Boston Qualifier

Running Accomplishments:

 Until recently I've never contemplated running beyond 5K.

5K: 27:02 (my first "PR" ...sad huh!)

10K ... ??

HALF ...??

MARATHON ...???


Short-Term Running Goals:

Las Vegas is canceled ... we are going to run races closer to home. My goal is to fix my form and be consistent.

My wife and I have decided to train for the Las Vegas marathon in December 09.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I'd like to qualify for Boston. Maybe try to see how fast I can be?

Personal:

My wife is the "real" runner in the family and has done Boston twice, but many years ago. She wants to get back to training and I just want to eh... start.

9:45 average pace, felt soreness in my left foot.  I turned it slightly during the 5K last week and I didn't feel much from it until now.

Absolutely nothing doing today -- foot hurts even walking on it, I limped to and from work. 

 

I am depressed.

Still resting and limping. If anything my foot hurts worse today than yesterday. The soreness seems to be expanding toward my toes from my ankle ... maybe I really did a bad thing running on Tuesday of this week.

 I know I healed from something similar not long ago ... I know *exactly* where the soreness comes from this time though ... two uneven slabs of concrete that I didn't notice while running in the 5K, and semi-rolled my ankle. It wasn't even enough to make me stop running at the time, nor for a few days thereafter. What gives.  I did fracture this ankle when I was a teenager and maybe it is just easily damaged now. Who knows.

 I am in a bad mood.
