60 minutes on the AMT.  It's been 2 weeks since I strained my left calf.  It feels pretty good, no pain at all.  My rough plan was to try running by the end of the week, but I might put it off for another week to play it safe.  

I'm heading to Wisconsin for a week on the 10th.  I'm not ready to run outdoors yet either, so I'll just stay with cardio until I come back on the 14th.  If all goes well, I'll try a little easy running on the 15th.

45 minutes on the AMT followed by walking, stretching and an easy 2 mile run in abount 18 minutes.  It's my first run since my minor left calf strain 2 weeks ago.  It went well.  I had no pain at all.
