I ran 9.2 miles on Thanksgiving. Everything was good until about mile 6 when I felt a sting above my left outside ankle. It almost felt like a shock . . .I had to stop because I thought that I was going to fall. It then started to feel hot. My "self diagnosis" via the internet . . it appears as though I have a case of peroneal tendonitis. I am not running today. . .This would make sense since the last several times I have run (either treadmill or yesterday in the park) I have run "hills".
It was cold and quiet running around the lake yesterday. My son didn't go with me because he is nursing an ankle right now (and it's basketball season so no reason to irritate it). Running alone on the trails I usually run with him (on the weekends) made me extremely sad and cognizant of the fact that both of my kids are growing up and one day neither will be around.
I love the places that my two feet can take me.
