5M in 36:50 on the treadmill at the Quincy, MA Marriott.  Couldn't get out the door for a real run.  Boring.

Injury report:

Left achilles:  Same as always: a little stiff and sore the first 2 miles, OK afterwards.  Iced in the sink afterwards.  Later in the day, both Achilles were feeling pretty bad, not just the fleshy part of the tendon that sticks out but down by where it connects to the heel, which is worrisome.  This is similar to how it was last September when I trashed it on that long run in the Catskills.  Decided to take a week off.
