It's been almost eight weeks since I blew out the right shin on a twenty miler at San Tan Mountain Reserve. I've been to a chiropractor for five straight weeks and have steadily gotten better. Today marks my first run back at San Tan since December 23rd. It was a short 6.25 miler with my favorite running partner Susie. My fitness is low, but it's nice to be thinking of fitness and not my ankle/shin!
Hated missing two races (Cold Mountain and San Tan) in the Desert Trail Series by Aravaipa Running but better to miss some races and get better than to really have to miss some time because I was too stupid to stop.
This week's runs: Tue 4.5, Fri 5.85, Sun 6.25 for a total of 16.6. More of the same for the next few weeks, might get close to 20/wk, but got to be careful here.
