My ankle has still been a problem and I caught a cold, so I didn't do anything this week.  I was trying to get out yesterday, but it is really hard to start running again after stopping--especially when it is so dark in the morning.  I finally got out today.  My ankle was stiff, but the pain was not as intense.  It was difficult to run 4 miles, though.  I'm hopeful my ankle will still be OK Monday.

I left my gps watch on my bike.  When I got it from my bike, I noticed the front break cable was detached.  I had switched from my road tires to my mountain tires for the ride last week.  I noticed that my front wheel was on backwards as I was riding up the trail.  At the top, I flipped the wheel around.  I may have forgotten to reattach the break cable.  That may have been my problem with my breaks on the way down, but it seems odd because I was getting some resistance on my front break handle.  I think I may have been getting some contact on the rim from one pad while the other was disengaged.
