So, I know that Jeremy is out for Sunday and most likely Rob as well. I plan on running 18-20 from the train station. I don't know where I'm headed - if the Canal is clear, probably out that way. I plan on starting at 6:45 - the question is: will Dave be a no-show?

Yes, still on the bench. Still in pain when I walk. I have been riding the stationary bike for an hour, then jumping on the stair climber for 45 min. I'm acqua running today. The goals is to be running by Monday.

I'm not ready for 18-20 - and won't be for a while. Anyone planning on 12-14 Sunday? The canal sounds like a great idea if, like Jaron said, it's clear.

Pretty good 20 by Dave and I yesterday. The Canal was clear for the most part - there were still some stretches of snow/ice out there that you had to work your way through, but not as bad as the Rail/Trail last Monday. Ice spots were at 2.75 to a little past the 3, from 7 to 7.5 and a little stretch out at the lockhouse just past 9 miles. I'm sure there were a couple other "spots" but these were the major ones. Pretty tough making it through them on the way back on dead legs.
As for the run, it was a decent 20 for both of us. Like most long runs, it turned into a minor progression run. Ran together for the first 8 until I had to take a bathroom break. Dave went ahead of me and I had to hammer to catch back up. Ended up being 66:24 at the 10 and Dave was 68, probably close to 69 minutes. On the way back, just focused on staying relaxed and thought we were running slow, but the first 5 back was in 33 minutes. Maintained that pace until about 3 to go and started to gradually pick it up - that last 2 miles was tough. I ended up pulling away from Dave a little and ran the last 5 in 30:53. Ended up being 63:53 for the last 10 and 2:10:18 for the entire 20. Dave was 2:15 for the 20, so he was about 66 minutes on the way back. Probably a little under 33 for his last 5. Dave looked pretty smooth the entire way - I don't think he was feeling the best, but when are you gonna feel good?

I still have some moderate soreness in the Tarsal-Metatarsal Joints and soreness around the second and third Metatarsals. Rehab has gone really well but using the stationary equipment and aqua jogging is so boring that I just had to run. So I ran 8 miles yesterday at 7:30 pace. When I tried to pick up the pace I had significant increase in stress in the injury area. So I planning on running tonight but I’m going to let my comfort level dictate pace and distance.
