After the 10k in NYC, I had the same issue with my Achilles as I did after the previous 10 miler and 5k races.

With no long races on my schedule until July 12, I could lay low…

and get ready to return to NYC today for work.

Last Week-

• Sunday – Another day with iffy weather.  It rained on and off.

I started the day at the gym and then got a lot of errands.

I spent most of the afternoon in the garden and then we barbecued before the rain. Phew.

• Monday -DAY OFF. Hiking was the plan followed by lunch.

First up:

Then meeting up with 2 hiking buddies…

We did a very easy yet scenic hike and discovered a new restaurant for a very delicious lunch!

In the evening, instead of my pickleball lesson, a friend was in town so a few of us met for dinner.

• Tuesday – Still babying my foot so I started the day at the gym.

I decided to go into the office and then afterward, I had a hair appt met my BFF for a walk.

• Wednesday – this morning I had my 2nd appt with my chiro… my achy lower back = tight hip flexors)

and in the afternoon , I had to go set up for live teaching this week.

On the way home, I hoped to get in some miles at the Corning bike path…

I needed a mood lifter so I stopped to visit my granddaughter…

• Thursday – Day 1 of teaching and standing all day.

The highlight was Starbucks

and a trail run/walk in the evening.

• Friday- Day 2 of  Starbucks, teaching and standing all day.

Then in the evening I played mah jongg.

• Saturday – Plans: Running? Boating? Both? Neither?

It turned out that it was finally perfect boating weather and so we invited 2 friends to come along and so I skipped my run.
