I did the run today, and while not meeting my original goals I never did get winded, thanks I think to a couple of hours on the elliptical per your suggestion. I was OK for a couple of miles, but several downhill grades were jarring and the ankle acted up.

But now I can let it heal up for a bit with just non-impact exercises.
