What a difference a healed ankle makes.
Last night I was craving the really good chicken and vegetable soup over at Las Palmeras.
So I put on some running gear (windbreaker, T-shirt, shorts) and threw a book in a daypack and ran over there. It's about 1.6 miles from my place, according to Google. I went with a windbreaker instead of the CFLST so I would be wearing reflectors.
About halfway there, when I was passing the local high school, I could feel I was getting a lot more speed out of my ankle.
The restaurant is very relaxed and has a friendly staff. I flipped through a book on hiking in Georgia while waiting for my food.
On the way back I ran at a pretty good clip. When it's cold out (it was about 42 degrees) I feel like I hardly overheat and can run faster.
This may start a new trend -- to motivate my running to farther places by running there instead of driving!
