LCC / La Caille loop. Right lower calf feeling tender again. Ran through it today. It didn't get worse, but twinge is still there. Hopefully it will pass.

Awesome run on beach. 5 miles with Tom. Oh my gosh, I feel so good running in California. More good news - the tweak in the lower right calf is 90% gone. I feel a little tightness but no twinge anymore. I think the temperature and humidity down here have something to do with it.

Afternoon run back in Utah - extremely gusty and dusty.  8 miles but ran mile 5 in 6:00 for fun then did power run back to start.

Up to LCC and back.  Snow on ground again.

Ran 22 - 10 miles out to Fortuna then back with a 2 mile diversion to make 22.  Pushed strong for 5 miles 5 through 10 - probably pushed a little too hard - made the remaining miles a real battle.  Used Jolly Ranchers for fuel.  They don't work.  So far "Smarties" have worked the best but I still need to experiment.  I admit it, the 22 really was a battle.  Perhaps I'm not accustomed to the mileage yet.  Glad I did it, and mentally I feel very confident.

Decided to rest after the long, tough 22 on Friday, in light of what happened week before when I ran 8 the day after running 20 (tweaked lower calf that lasted half a week). So, just walked a mile with the family.
