Since I’m taking it easy, I started  my 9 mile run today at an 8:30 pace and dropped down to 6:40 at the end, and actually the 6:40 felt really comfortable.   Its an indication that I’m having a relatively normal day amongst the rest…we’ll see how it goes.

On one side, my calf is really tight- I attribute that to dehydration.  I have been so frustrated with my whole running situation that I haven’t been very good at hydrating.  Anyhow, I still attended my pilates class because I’m religious about that, and I’m still wearing my Chung Shi’s because I’m trying to relieve my plantar fasciitis.. I think I’m going to make a shoe change to back to something with a tighter seem around the arch.

I’ve stopped doing massage for the time being because the type of massage I do is very hard on the body and can act like a workout.  So instead of it having a loosening effect, it is contributing to my over-training.

Tomorrow my girlfriends are doing their long run so I might join them… but they are running a little slower so it shouldn’t take much out of my body.
