An Uphill Battle

Training has been a bit of a struggle over the past few weeks coming off my toe injury. The toe has been nagging me during runs, severely limiting how fast I feel that I can push without making it worse. I've been icing periodically and after runs, which has helped some; it comes and goes. I went for a 13.1 miler a few weeks ago that was OK. I ran on a treadmill yesterday for 7 miles and it felt easier on the joints, so I may stay inside for a while to help rehab. The treadmill is like watching paint dry, (well, more like watching cash cab) but at least its not too hot; it was in the 90s most days last week which made things a bit nasty. I always set it to a 1% incline to make up for the ease of having no terrain to deal with.

In in other news, the kickball team is 6-0 with one game left. I'll be glad when its over so I don't have to worry about running in cleats.
