3.5 Mile Bike

Rode 3.5 miles in 25 minutes in the stiff wind. My ankle is much better today after icing it, elevating it all night and taking some motrin.

I am still not certain what caused the stiffness. Here are the possibilites:

1. Running a 5K on Saturday after a two week layoff
2. Running in the cold with both an inadequate warmup and inadequte cool down/stretch
3. The cold wet weather yesterday
4. Slightly tweaking it.
5. Riding the bike for 5 miles on Sunday (maybe poor foot positioning)
