| Slept like a stone. Amazing how tired you can get doing 9.5 hours of driving.
Heel was very sore this morning. Not sure why. Haven't done much of anything all week.
Since it hurt after doing nothing, decided to do an easy run. Hurt a lot on the foot-strike for the first mile, but then felt somewhat better for the rest of the run. Iced foot immediately afterwards. |

| Not the usual stiffness in the heel when I woke up this AM; maybe some improvement?
When I went to bed last night, I had planned to try a short morning run to see how the heel responded. Opted for a compromise: 30 minutes on the treadmill. |

| The official tour at Denison. |
 | Note | |
| |
| Drove from Granville, OH to Harrisonburg, VA. 6 hours, 30 minutes. Beautiful route through the mountains, but a long day.
Harrisonburg, so far, has been, well, not what we were expecting. An old farming community with a university and a newer strip-mall section with the hotels, the wal-mart, home depot etc. |
