Any racing goals in 2016? How's your bod treating you these days?

I am so hesitant to make goals because I've been sidelined the past 2 years with injuries. But I do want to do a half ironman in May, hopefully run some fast halfs again and get to a starting line of a fall marathon injury free.

I actually feel pretty good. I plan to keep my miles low through the winter so my ankle can continue to get stronger and I hope one day I can return to the trails. I would love to do some trail racing and maybe an ultra but I don't know if my ankle will ever handle that again.

Glad to hear you are doing better. Have you ran a trail race before? I'd like to do some shorter and longer ones, but I am itching to get back on the road again for some fast stuff.

Do you wear ankle compression socks, like Features? I'm sure you've tried a lot things. My ankles have gotten better on the trails than they ever were on the road. Not sure why.

I have done the Wasatch and Jupiter steeple chase and lived them but I just miss running on trails. I haven't tried anything yet for my ankle but I probably will come summer time. I just know my ankle wound not survive another sprain. I'm itching to race fast again too.... I hope this year I can get my fast back.
