Sounds like extensor tendonitis. Sometimes caused by lacing your shoes too tightly.
I had that once and it turned out to be something with the front of my calf (by the bone) and the tendons running down over the ankle. I massaged the front of my calf and those tendons for a few days and it went away.
Interesting. Ill look into that as a possibility.
Oh, I signed up for my fist race of the year this saturday! Only 22 miles but it looked like a fun/fast course and I needed some motivation to get in a long run this weekend.

Starting to get my miles humming.
I've set a goal, minimum 10 miles a week this year, I've done 500 mile years before, but it's been a while. My target is for 730(avg 2/day).
I know it ain't shit for you ultra guys, but running is just one thing for me, not THE thing.
Gotta plan some races soon too. Gotta have a purpose for putting the time in(though my last 2 1/2s I did almost no prep for).

On that note, signed up for the OC Chili Race series. A 10 mile trail run every month through March, right in my back yard (which happen to also fit perfectly into my taper schedule).

22 miles tonight on the treadmill. 3:50:13. 
1 Salt Tab every hour did the trick.

holy fuck shit. You are nuts...but in a good way.
Did a 35k trail race this morning, ended up 2nd overall and 5 minutes off the previous course record, finishing in 2:55. Felt super solid the whole race, did only 2 v fuel gels the whole time cause my stomach was a little off but never felt depleted. Felt great on the hills especially, it had about 3800 feet of vert but was super runnable. I could defnitely tell I am getting stronger on the downhills which has always been my weakness. After the first climb around 5 miles in I was with a pack of 4 other guys, and I broke away once we summited and expected them to be on my heels but I never saw them again till I hit the turnaround and was heading back in. Usually I'm the one getting smoked on the down hill so that felt really good.

Jebus that's a great time. Congrats!
Ended up tweaking my back Sunday morning doing weights. I think my form was off vs. recovery from Friday. Going to take it REALLY easy the next several days. Need to recoup in preparation for the OC Chili 10 miler and HB Half. Both less than 3 weeks away.

Yep, that's North of O'Neil but still in my back yard. GREAT area for trail running, and one of the reasons I'm doing the OC Chili series. Hoping to talk to some of the more experienced folks about their preferred routes.
Curious - what back stretches they recommend for you?

Cobra:
Lift the hips off of the ground while pushing off of the tops of your feet and looking up and it becomes upward dog.

Tried adding that yesterday to my usual back stretches. Felt good. Going to take it easy another day or two. Getting old sucks.

Woke up with a really sore right Achilles after yesterday's run. That's a new one. 
Seems minor and I'll assuming it'll heal up in the next day or so, but it's annoying.

Just did my last long run of this build for the Surf City Marathon in 2 weeks. 20 miles, averaged a 7:48 pace. Felt pretty good even with it being really warm today. I think all this mileage is catching up to me though, cause I'm fucking exhausted. I'm already at 160 miles for the month. Really looking forward to this taper. Plan on doing lots of mental training and visualizing the race.
Your running(pace and total distance) is a lot like my running but x5.
Jeesus man.
Good luck

After a great week of confidence boosting fast shorter runs, I think I was just tired. My goal was to do it (running the same course as the marathon) and stay close to race pace. That went out the window after the first mile where I was fighting the wind (it on the beach and the afternoon winds always pick up) and everything seemed like a huge effort. Managed to average a 7:45, which is what everyone says your long run effort should be like (:30 to 1:00 slower than race pace) but I had to stop a few times to get the HR down.
