The plan called for 12 this morning, but I got a late start and was still feeling sluggish at about 5 miles, so I turned around and headed home. I went up to Wasatch, across Parley's to Millstream and back. The trail was still covered in snow in parts, and that slowed my pace down considerably on the way out (the snow-covered spots were mostly on the downhill on the way back). My calves were still a little sore (particularly on the uphill sections), but it's hard to tell if that was attributable to Friday's run in the VFFs or just the fact that I upped my mileage so much last week. Either way, I'll keep an eye on it and will try to remember to stretch throughout the day and apply The Stick at night.
