I have been rehabbing a strained calf muscle for the last two weeks. Today I made it five miles with no pain.  I think I can slowly build up again.

6.2 solo and then a 10 minute jog with Myles.  Left calf is just fine. Right Achilles wasn't happy.

So glad to be running pain free!  Hoping to build to 8 by the end of the week.

So hot and muggy this morning.  Continuing to rehab and build.  I will shoot for 5 days of running next week.

Goal for the week is all six days of running.  I tried out new racing shoes.  They are ASICS. They have the carbon plate.  There's definitely something to the new shoe technology.  I was knocking the pace down and feeling very efficient while doing it.  I'm not exactly in good shape right now. 7:36, 7:06, 6:55, 6:33, 6:30, 6:12, 6:07.
