I ran again this afternoon — 3 miles in 24:34, or about 8:11 pace.  The pace felt pretty good aerobically — not too challenging considering how little running I’ve done over the last 12 weeks.  It shows my aerobic work in the gym is helping me maintain at least a minimum aerobic level.

I think I’m pushing the Achilles tendon too much at this point, however. It didn’t really hurt, but there was just a bit of soreness, and according to my therapist I need to avoid soreness there altogether.  It’s killing me but I have to avoid pushing the running too fast.

Fortunately the weight lifting doesn’t seem to be causing a problem for the tendon, so I can stick with that.
