8 Miles at Hains Point and the Mall

Well... it did not go well today.  My achilles tendon was sore from yesterday at the beginning of today's run, and after the first mile it was hurting a little.  I pushed through and ran at a 9:20 pace.  I debated stopping because I was "running through the pain" but thought I should see if I could finish or not.  Of course I finished, and now my tendon is more sore than before.

So I'm stopping.  For now.

I made an appointment with the orthopedic doctor I saw before (when I had my other tendon issue in May/June) for Friday.  Let's see what advice and treatments he has for me.

So, dear reader... keep your fingers crossed and say a prayer for my recovery.  I'd hate for this to be my last run in this blog.
