Saturday:
AM: Long run scratched....5 miles (only bc I had to run back home) Both shins started to ache today, like I am developing shin splints. I never have shin splints!! :( I'm just so frustrated today. Running is so awkward now(!!!); and it's not even the righ ankle that bothers me anymore. Every other thing that can go wrong, is!! Right now I'm thinking about pulling out of National half. 11 wks to go, and I'm no where near fit.
I miss the comfort I used to feel while running.

Total miles for the week: 23
