A little bit of interval training today for part of the run.  I ran one minute at 7:30 pace then a 1 rest minute at 8:30.  Did 10 minutes of that before I just backed off and ran at a comfortable pace.

Nice easy run today.  I wanted to go further, but a migraine had other plans for me today.

Running at Thunderbird Park. Awesome day at 80 degrees.  I ended up rolling my ankle about 2 miles in, but made it through okay.

So, I tried to run today, and my ankle just hurt.  It didn't feel like it was going to buckle, but there was pain.  I'm guessing there is simply some inflammation that needs to be resolved.

Today I pushed it.  I ran for 5 minutes at 8:30/mile, then I increased it for the next 5 minutes.  After that, I progressively got faster each minute over the next 5 until I was basically sprining the last minute.  It was a great run, but 15 minutes was plenty.

Today I did a nice even pace at 8:30/mile for the entire run.  I can feel some pain in my foot, but it wasn't limiting my running.
