Soberlook up Euclid Heights to S. Taylor to Mayfield to Monticello to Forest Hills, around close side, around far side, down hill, up sketchy path in woods, back down Moticello to Mayfield to Kenilworth to Derbyshire to Euclid Heights to Soberlook (with Grogan, Grese) -

I had not been to Forest Hills since October 26th. This was my first double digit run in nearly six months (since Nov 8th) and my knee felt totally fine. It felt healed. This run had way more concrete than I am used to and both my achilles were tight and sore toward the end.

This closes what winds up a 45.5 mile week, which is a bit more than I had planned so I'll probably be feeling it some, as my achilles told me today. I will be seeing Dr. Miskovski, shooting for 50 miles and running Hudsons this week, so we'll see what happens. I don't care what direction my mileage goes, as long as it goes up.

In 3-4 weeks I could hit 60 miles, which marks the end of rehab and the beginning of training. I am sick and tired of being bitter about the past. It's over. I have just to work through the semester to its completion in a couple weeks. Then, we move on. I am trying to give up the grudge.
