Easy Recover 12/20

Still feeling kind of rough from yesterdays run. Toe still numb, foot felt like it had a massive foot cramp. Tried to stretch it out some. Rolling helps a bit - nice knot in my calf that makes my big toe twitch when I roll it. Think I might be getting some feeling back after a short run. Going to try to lance the blister tomorrow. Really anxious, kind of annoyed I beat up my ankle so much. Think I can get through it. Ankle was a bit swollen today.

JG Long 12/19

Did a long run today with JG. Cruised through the beginning pretty quick and think we tanked towards the end - at least I did. Got some sleep last night, but not a lot. Ankle felt good going into it.

Run was supposed to be around 16, JG got lost and it ended up being 17. Would have been longer but we were going to go down one of the trails and with my huaraches I had to walk. JG walked with me, but it left my toes freezing. Huaraches felt good in the beginning, feet a little sore towards the end.

Afterwards my ankle is feeling a bit swollen, somewhat sore. Thought it would hurt worse. Legs are pretty sore, quads were ripped up as this was one of the hilliest loops I've done. I also picked up a blister under my big toe and it's left my toe feeling a bit numb. At first I thought it was the cold weather, second guessing that now.

J-Hill 12/10

Ankle a bit sore. More noticeable than before. Might be the shoes. Kind of annoyed, kind of scared - don't want to miss any races or long term training. Bah. Signed up for CBHM - sold out in 14 minutes. New huaraches today, smaller than the last ones, feel okay.

Ankle feels kind of bruised, tender. Felt okay in the beginning of the day, noticed it being tender when I stepped on a two inch lip and heel touched the ground. Wondering about going to a doctor...

Day Off 12/9

No sleep last night and really wasn't feeling that great. Took the day off. Ankles a bit sore today. Wore my old Ronin's at night. Stretching seems to make it feel better.

Re-strung my huaraches, but pulled the lace through the side while restringing them. Have to make a new pair tonight.

Marton 12/8

Okay run. Felt fairly decent going into it. Ankle a little sore. Wasn't too bothersome going downhill. With 2.4 miles to go I popped a rope on my huarache and ended up going barefoot. Wasn't too bad, but ground was wet and cold and there was a fair bit of man made gravel strewn about.

J-Hill 12/6

J-Hill 12/5

Day off yesterday. Another day at work on my feet all day. Ankle felt okay. Little sore on the run today, but not until I got to Juniper Inn. Did 1.75 barefoot. Toes got kind of numb towards the end. Not sure what's going to happen with it. Going to keep going light and easy and see how things work. More stretching.

J-Hill 12/2

Day off yesterday. Ankle feeling weird. Tightness when I bend my toes too far down - like when I'm going downhill or stepping down stairs.

Did the whole run barefoot today. Brought my huaraches with me just in case, didn't put them on. Ground on J-Hill was a bit cold, but that wasn't the problem. The real problem was all the gravel they dumped on the sidewalks. Lots of sharp edges. Couple of blisters on the pads of my second and third toes. See if I can rectify it tomorrow.
