I did a 3 miler earlier today bringing me to an 8 mile week. Highest mileage in almost 4.5 months. Of course, really any mileage at all at this point is the “most in X months”.
The heel feels pretty good. Some soreness. I have been mitigating it over the last couple of days with a heating pad. Interestingly, it had been pretty sore since my two miler on Wednesday, but using the heating pad last night for a little bit seemed to alleviate the soreness. So much so, I took what was going to be a 2 miler, and tossed on another mile.
Next week the goal is 3*3 (3 runs of 3 miles each). And then I will stay there for a bit.
I have been hitting the gym about 4 times a week, and riding the bike for an hour each time. I plan to at least stick to 3 days a week of biking till I add some more mileage.
That’s awesome man! I can’t wait until you are up for an 8 miler (I know, pushing it)
I’m glad that you are taking things slow and careful but also starting to get back to where you want to be.
