Slow running

I am slowly getting into the swing of things with running, and i mean SLOWLY. I am only up to 6k so far and so slow.  I am also nervous about hurting my ankle again or my ankle not being ready for the constant pounding. I have been feeling something in there that i can't quite quantify. My ankle doesn't hurt but it doesn't not hurt either. I talked to Brett about it and he says to keep running and keep seeing him. So that's the plan. And it doesn't actually hurt so i won't stop until it does.

That being said i had a kick ass 6k run this morning. Didn't feel a thing in my ankle. Brett said to stick to gravel for the most part and i am thinking that i must do gravel only. It was after two runs where i ran only a little on the pavement/concrete that i started to feel something. I thought it was in my head because i am paying so much attention to what i feel in my ankle. Only time will tell. But i will tell you one thing while i am running i won't be racing for awhile. The 10k Legs for Literary is not going to happen i don't want to risk the pounding on the pavement hurting it. I'm still striving for running the hypothermic half in February still depending on how things go in the next month or two. I would start training sometime in November for that. I am really hoping i can as i am antsy to run those higher mileages. 

I go back to see Brett next week as i couldn't get in this week (he is a popular man). So i am hoping for some good, non sensation feeling runs this week! I will keep you all posted. Thanks for listening:)
