This was awesome. No calf issues, quads just a bit tired. BDT did great as I lead him (sometimes to his displeasure) through some faster paces: miles 2-4 @ 8:46, 8:32, and 8:03 oops.

Just the right pace for an easy run, hills didn't kill me, my CALF felt fine, and I got to run with Julia M., the kind of mother-academic-runner-cool person we all hope we'll be someday. :)

Mercer 600 yd
I have started with reading about swimming technique, maybe sometime I'll arrange to meet with the same instructor we sometimes use for our kids. Can't hurt to swim more efficiently.

I have too - I think my breathing ratio is all wrong so I'm going to try some new stuff next swim. Nice work today!

Also, let us know how the swim instructor goes! I was probably 10 when I had my last swim lesson - unless you count that summer when Ross' swim coach grandma gave me some fins and told me to use them.

Lately, whenever I think of gender inequities, whether in sports, work, or elsewhere, I call on my cartoon alter ego's words. That was really crummy in Grinnell.

I hope so too. I'm actually dragging my butt to the doctor soon -- I think it is nerve related, which would explain a couple other symptoms. Grr.

I have only stretched minimally before running. Stretching during usually helps. I am just confused -- why now? It seems like it has increasingly been an issue since December or so.
