As a response to this injury, I think I am going to hook up with a local trainer to get started on good form. As near as I can tell, this "left ankle" injury isn't in my ankle at all. Looks like it's just shin splints from bad form and being out of shape. I never thought shin splints because the pain isn't in my shin.

Samuel Harvell
Found some great videos from a San Francisco based running coach named Samuel Harvell. Here's a playlist of the ones I want to look at in the near future:

Running Update
Well, I ran in my first 5K race; I ran the first mile too fast and hurt my leg (more about the hurt leg later). My time was 28:08 and my pace was 9:05/M. I ran the first mile in 8:14, which is about the pace I was working on at the track earlier in the week. It's also slower than the 2mi pace I worked on two days previous. But the wind was blowing and I was freaked, really... and I blew it. I also pushed my odd left leg injury too much and I've been limping for a while. Time to get some running form.
