Solid ten miles this morning. The weather was perfect for a run. I like the loop I came up with, but the uphills were pretty killer. I was around a 6:50 average at 5 miles, and ended up averaging 6:40 for the total ten, so 6:30 for the second half. The last half mile I really grinded, and I was around 6 minute pace on that gradual uphill. My right calf was sore today, but it wasn't tendonitis. Solid run and I had to keep the focus on the pace, but it felt good. The big hill on mile 4 just about got me though.
