Right calf is causing me trouble.  It is something I would normally run through but I am getting a little wimpy in my old age.

Three easy miles to start then 4 at LT pace then an easy 2 to cool down.  Plan was to keep the pace just below 6:40/mile.  Averaged 6:38 and it felt a little too easy.  I guess that is a good thing.  I was concerned about my right calf so I didn't push.  The only time that it did not hurt was during the tempo run.  It hurt during the warm up and cool down miles and hurts to walk.

Got too late of a start and couldn't get the entire run in.  Can't wait for Ashton to get his driver's license so I don't have to rush home to take him to school.  Felt decent during the run.  Kept the pace just under 8:00/mile.

Ran to the LPT and met Kam and Tara.  They had already put in a few miles by the time I got there.  Felt really good while running with them and the time flew by.  Tara had to leave after a few miles but I was able to stay with Kam until my mile 14.  The last 3 or 4 miles together we picked up the pace and ran 7:30's.  Felt really good.  As soon as he left, I really struggled.  The pace immediately slowed by a minute per mile and my achilles tendons started to ache really bad.  No reason why this should have happened other than mental fatigue.  Really need to work on that.
