Achilles Heel

Distance: 4.4 mi.
Time: 37:03
Pace: 8:37

Today I set off to Beatty Park again to run on the trails. I slowly wound through the woods exploring sections that I had avoided during the previous sojourn. About two miles in, I suddenly came down with some nasty pain in my troublesome right achilles. I had never had it this bad before; in fact, it usually doesn't bother me much at all during the run and only flares up afterward. I stopped and walked awhile but I was in the middle of the woods. I eventually was able to run home after loosening the shoe a good bit, but the pain was tough later on at work. It was the kind of sharpness that makes you feel dizzy - not good.
