        Akron Half Marathon

        Goal Time: 1:55:00 (9 minutes better than PR)


        I've been feeling pretty confident about this race, unfortunately I did run into a little achilles/soleus pain yesterday, but I'm not going to panic. We'll see what happens.

        Goals?

             Hey, me too!

             

            Get a massage ASAP. Someone who knows how to rip your achilles apart (the right way). During my 20-miler yesterday I was considering not running today at all, due to achilles soreness. Since the last day I didn't run was in January, that gives you an idea how I felt.

             

            After the run I got a great massage from my wife (who is a CMT) and I just got back from a successful Monday run. My achilles is still sore and tender, but most of that is from the massage itself, which is a good thing. I'm much more confident now that this is going to end up as a minor tweak and that's all. Hopefully it's the same for you!

                    ChesapeakeMan but just the run leg, I'll say goal = 3:20

                    It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                        I will be running the inaugural Renaissance Festival 10k in Shakopee MN.  I will be shooting for 40:00 or less.  This will be one of two 10k's that I have planed to make this goal.  It would also be a PR by over 2min.

                            I think I figured out why my achilles/soleus was acting up....thems is monkey inclinations...I realize you can't train for the monkey, but you CAN psych your legs out....

                                The Great Race 10K - Pittsburgh,  9/27.

                                Never done a 10K, and I have felt like death lately, so we'll just go with 56min and say Yay! if anything better happens.
