I am 42, and am only getting better with age and wisdom.

Legs felt great once I got warmed up - about a mile into the run.

Scheduled workout: mile repeats, 3x1mile @ 5:45-5:50, 5 m.n. recovery, 7 miles total. Actual splits: 5:47, 5:48, 6:00. Bowel issues slowed me down in last split. Felt sharp twinge in right achilles tendon / lower calf during cool down.

Was not going to run today because of tweaked achilles / calf.  Can't tell exactly what I did but it was really sharp this morning.  Got to California and could not resist so went out for afternoon run on the beach.  After a mile, the sharpness disappeared and I was cranking.  So beautiful!

Incredibly, this morning I felt no sharp twinge or even tightness in the right achilles or calf.  A little general soreness now and then, but hardly anything at all.  Very strange, as yesterday and the day before it was quite painful and worrisome.  I really thought I was going to have to take some serious time off.  Orange County was the cure!  Did another 7 miles on the sand.  A storm is moving in so it was breezy but I felt strong and the surf was so energizing!

Felt pretty good but definitely a bit tired toward the end of the run.
