7 mile long run - ain’t so bad

I did the 7 mile long run today. It wasn’t too bad. Ok, I did the first two miles on the treadmill and the last 5 on the track. I also did a few 1 lap walking breaks at some of the mile points. Real slow. 12 minute pace. I’m trying to be gentle on the right shin/calf.

Appointment with the MD on Wed. Just to be sure its not a tumor (insert Schwartzenegger voice here).

BTW, ice baths are damn cold. Did another tonight and in case I didn’t mention it, THEY ARE DAMN COLD! 10 minutes is about all I can take. Supposedly its helping. Maybe you are so upset by the cold, you don’t notice the pain in your leg.

Stretch tomorrow. Gentle on the leg. Gentle.
