I had to take my car in the shop for a quick fix so I ran while waiting for it to be complete. Had a few more aches and pains today, but nothing too major.

alright dark, quick run 5.25 mi 00:37 06:57 pace
We had a "polar bear" track meet tonight so I was able to sneak in a quick run before it got too dark. Knee felt fine, but this felt so much harder effort-wise.

During my warm up I felt great so I was excited to see how I'd race today.
The race started out on a fairly screaming downhill before it went flat at the first mile. I knew this was probably going... read more-

good misty run 6 mi 00:40 06:37 pace
I think yesterday's rest day was a smart move. No pain today and the pace felt comfortable. Excited for the next Winter Series race on Saturday.

Have a great race on Saturday. Looks like the calf/knee are coming around just in time for some speed.

alright battlefield/regency 8 mi 00:54 06:43 pace
My knee started to hurt in the beginning of the run. I think it might be from overcorrecting my stride while my calf was sore. It went away about 2 miles in and I ended up having a nice run. While ... read more

Running tempo at the end of my long runs because it's a great workout and confidence builder for the marathon.

Favorite: ~90 minute run because you can go so many places
Toughest: Longer reps on the track (800m+)- the fatigue and hurt set in a little earlier each time12 days ago • Like

My left calf is still very sore. The first couple miles were fine but it felt worse the farther I ran. I would have stopped earlier but it was an out and back run.
