Probably because you NEVER stop running. LOL! Oh, and I didn't end up going running last night. Shame on me.

Keep taking it easy and be patient. Your body will adjust. You may have to stay at this mileage for a while until you are sure your body is ready to increase again. Keep up the good work!

Burt, yes, shame on you. But good cycling!

April, thanks, the best part is that I feel my body is adapting, but very slowly. Today was better, I'm just surprised that it didn't like this distance...anyways, we shall keep trying. In the afternoon is a good moment to measure the degree of soreness, but today doing real good.

Tomorrow I was thinking of doing a long run with hills (very long hills). Now I'm not sure, what should I do? It was going to be 15 to 16 kms ...

I would scrap the long run and just do your regular 13k, especially with ankle trouble--hills and a long run might not be a good idea. Maybe next week if you are adjusted a little more?

Wow nice job on the mileage! I had a bit of knee pain when I increased my mileage last year - your body will adjust. Do the ankles hurt as if you were injured, or as if you worked them hard? Sometimes running in uneven terrain, even for a few steps, can make my ankles hurt - then they're fine... Maybe head out for your long run but make yourself come back if you're hurting? Have a nice weekend!

I would not call it hurt, but sore. Like if I worked them hard, like if you had to stand a very long time on them.

But maybe the heel pads could help... again-> ;)
