return to running

Sorry for the delay in sending out training schedules - we will be able to get them to you next week when we return from the NCAA East Preliminary Round in Bloomington, IN. Below is a three week return to running schedule for everyone starting back. Those already back to running, keep the next three weeks easy and light. When you get your mileage schedules, don't worry if you don't hit the numbers for these first three weeks. Keep your runs easy and relatively short. Gradually build of the length of your runs through this return to running schedule and keep the pace of your runs pretty gentle. Let your body re-adjust to the routine of running. Make sure you do plenty of stretching, particulary hip flexors and calves/achilles. Lastly, call/text if you have questions; look for your schedule to be emailed by mid-week.

  15. 14 miles. I was running and the sidewalk ended and as I moved to the street my foot slipped off of the curb and I landed hard on the outside of my root foot. I thought I had fractured it. Just saw a physical therapist today who said it was a "joint sprain at the base of the fifth metatarsal" and recommended I take the next 7-10 days off. He encouraged biking and swimming and I'll be doing that rigorously. Sucks, but I'll be healthy soon.
