First actual run since the marathon - did some walking and run/walking over the weekend during Travis' first 8K race at UF golf course - pretty cool.  He did well, going 27:21 finishing pretty much exactly half pack (100th of 227 finishers).  He said he never got comfortable and had way too much left at end, so thats a good sign.  He is running unattached, taking a redshirt for XC this season - good plan, and he is fine with it.

My little run this morning was slow and still a bit achy in calves.

A few more easy miles getting back into the swing of things.  Left calf still tight.

Ramping things all the way up to 4 miles now - might go for 5 tomorrow!  I have nearly convinced myself to roll right back into training, and go for that 3:24.59 at the Tally marathon in Feb.  Will commit one way or the other on Oct 1... four months out from the marathon.

Easy run around the neighborhood before work.  Almost a hint of fall now that its the last day of summer.
