Still got a tweak in my left ankle from a couple of months ago that's still bothering me. I'm thinking of taking a week off to let it heal, but I hate to skip jogging.

 

I'll have some time off after Thanksgiving. I'm going to head down to Cedar Hill, Texas and go deer hunting with my dad and my brother Cameron. I'm not much of a hunter.

I've been watching The Biggest Loser again lately. I like that show a lot. It's pretty entertaining. I've also been watching Dancing with the Stars with my wife. I can't believe I've gotten into that show so much. Bruno is hilarious!

 

Over at www.shutupandrun.net, the author just finished a Triathlon.

Stuck with my plan pretty good this week. Picking up the pace. Still getting slight pain and weakness in my left ankle though. I don't know what's up with that. I hope it gets better.

 

On a less healthy note, I just ate a whole stack of Keebler Fudge Stripe Cookies. Mmm... Those were awesome!

Did some faster runs this week, to try to get used to that. I also made a marathon training schedule to follow through 2014. Tentatively targeting an attempt at the Columbus Marathon on 10/19/14. Still not fully commited mentally... Do or do not - there is no try.

Had a good long run, but didn't do much for the rest of the week. I am picking up the pace though. I used to run at 6 mph. Now I keep a minimum of 6.2 and try to go 6.5 or 7. I plan to do better in the next race.

Still playing Diablo 3. I've got mixed feelings about that game.

Did an 8 mile trial run in Sunday to see if my ankle would hold up. No problem, except there was slight stiffness and pain in it the next day. I've given it all week to heal, so I will be in prime condition for the half marathon on Sunday. One year of training. Only 2 days left to go!
