It was cool (48) and overcast this morning.  I just did an easy recovery run today.  I started off super easy to get warmed up and felt pretty good.  I am still having some issues with my achilles but it is usually better after I get warmed up.  Today I also had some pain in my right hip.  That is where I had the problem before so I hope it doesn't come back. I need to spend more time stretching and strengthening it.  Glad I got the longer run in yesterday since today is going to be busy plus it is supposed to rain later.

No miles for a while? I hope it's just your schedule and not those aches and pains keeping you down.

Thanks for checking up on me. I spent the last three days hiking in the Smoky Mountains. No running the last few days but a lot of walking up hill with some beautiful scenery.

I rode my motorcycle through the Smokies a couple years ago. Best road trip ever!
