Slept IN today, then ate some breakfast, then worked more on the baseboards: adding some "sanding sealer". From there, did a bunch of internet work -- somehow pissing the day away 'til like 3 o'clock!
Ankles were SUPER-stiff this AM. Frustrating. But then I realized that if this is all about stiff "side ankle tendons" (medial, lateral tendons + retinacula), then I have to work on the feet!
Spent quite a bit of time rolling out the feet, on both soft and hard rollers. This evidently helped a TON because - against my usual judgment - we went running this afternoon and it felt GOOD.
The first mile, flat and on the bark, felt a little iffy, but after a mile...pretty damn good!
Ran Amazon, all the way to the end of Rexius and back. Stopped x3 for pullups (x10, x7, x7). It was really fun to feel that (relatively good. Really encouraging.
Post-run: weights, then home, then off to have beers with Brent. Good chats, per usual.
GOOD WEEK.
