Funny that my 50 mile time is faster than my 50K.  Guess that's what happens when your only 50K has over 11,000' of vertical ascent =)

Just want to stay happy and healthy.  Bring on whatever that may entail!

Personal:

I started running in April '09 and run to maintain some balance in my life.  Apparently I have an addictive personality so I figure I should do something positive with it.

Had almost zero time so I had to bust my butt to even get 2 in.  Ran the first half mile at warmup pace, then ran 6:00 flat followed by a cooldown.  Figured if I can't get quantity I might as well get quality.

Ankle hurt but surprise, surprise... When I strike with perfect form I can hardly feel it.  Looks like this injury is gonna force me into proper foot striking.  Definitely not complaining but the mileage will have to stay low for a bit.  I'm ok with that I guess.

Easy 5 at the JRP.  Calves a bit tight towards the end but that's to be expected.  Ankle held up ok.  Wish I could run more but I need to be patient.

Did the 10K route on the BST from Hidden Valley Park.  First time wearing the Lone Peaks and I must say, I love them!  Ankle was sore afterwards, but it seems to be recovering more quickly after each run.  Gonna try to run at least 4 days next week and see how things hold up.
