December 9, 2015 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 55, misty

Decided to test out the ankle a little, as it felt better and better as the day went on...

Ran to Oakmont do to 0.25 on the bark, but there were annoying dog-walkers there, so I decided to just run toward PRE. Felt damn good, and I had greedy thoughts of doing my tempo 5K, but I was feeling it ever-so-slightly (lateral ankle tendon only) so I was smart and simply ran easy.

BIG focus on "relaxed and athletic ankle":

- "flick the foot forward and pull back", so it's landing whole foot, but still staying strong + pushing off strong
- otherwise whole foot, straight ahead
- "Anton arms"

Felt GOOD. Was running reasonably fast (HR jacked a bit). But it was a teeny bit sore...

Taped it on the lateral side with K-tape, and that seemed to help...

Wore the adidas boosts that I bought in FL. Good, because they have more heel drop.
