Six miles and Zumba.  I caught a sinus infection to go with my flu.  I have felt horrible for a really long time!  Started feeling better today.

In CA on vacation. Working on the slow build back.  Easy AM run followed by six miles walking around Universal Studios.  Ran by the Arcadia High track.  Home of my high school glory years.  Hope Cole gets to run there in the next couple of years.

Running in sunny CA is fabulous.  Sore legs from all the walking. 6 more park miles today. We are all exhausted.

I hate the cold.  I hate the wind even more. I'm a grouchy runner today.

Treadmill morning.  Boring, but not cold.  I will head out in the great outdoors again tomorrow.

More cold miles.  I might get in a couple with Wolf Pack tonight. So glad my lungs are back to full function 6.5

2 miles jogging at Wolfpack practice.  I was so cold standing around that I ran just to stay warm

Good end to the week.  Soleus got a little sore in the last mile.  I can't wait until my new shoes arrive.  7:00 average.

Soleus still a bit sore.  I will have to make sure I run easy until it loosens up.

Didn't run yesterday.  Soleus was still a bit tender today.  Seemed to warm out pretty well about half way through the run.  New shoes should be here today.  7.3

PM: Ran some mileage with Wolf Pack.  4.7

Legs were tired from yesterday.  Lots of hills last night.  Windy and warm morning.  New shoes are helping my sore calves.

Weather kept switching from pleasant to miserable every ten minutes.  Gotta love spring running.

Wore heels all day yesterday.  That was stupid.  My calves were a big crampy mess today.  I need to be more careful with my footwear. 7.2 AM miles

PM:  Ran cooldown with Wolf pack.  Got to warm my calves up a bit. They did better than this morning.

Took about three miles to warm into my run this morning.  Calves were a bit sore, but not cramping today.

I'm kind of stuck in the 7 mile range.  I planned 8, but had a bathroom emergency toward the end, and I was close to home. So, I stopped a mile short.  It was a pretty morning. I like that the sun starts to come out.

Such a nice morning.  Hoping that running continues to get more pleasant through the next month. I like wearing shorts in the morning!
