Personal:

I am married with 3 lovely children 29, 21, 15 a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue. Love to run and be outside. I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible. Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

I got up and went by myself out and back to the canyon. My plan was to do a 4 mile tempo starting at wills and going up 2 and turning and coming down 2 well the first 2 are a slight up grade and my legs were tired so they weren't very fast so I took a miles break still running up the canyon. Then I turned and did a 3 mile tempo down it still wasn't that great because my legs felt trashed but better.

first attempt 1-7:37 2-7:44

2nd attempt 1-7:20 2-7:07 3-6:52

1:36:53/8:05

I really hope my legs feel better next saturday for Moab.

Its all that high mileage. No hard or long stuff after Tues at the latest and you will be fresh. I like to break up my runs to give my legs a break and that helps them feel fresher too. But you probably already knew that...

Hey Josse- Good luck in Moab! Give your body a nice taper and you'll do GREAT!

Happy Anniversary!

Just a quick update - My foot is feeling much better and I will keep massaging it, and I have a little tightness in my upper calf, about 4-5 inches below my knee. Could you suggest any stretches?

Thanks again!

There are not a whole lot of opions when it comes to the calf but you can do the classic hang your heel off the curb stretch. Or I really like the downward dog yoga pose. Google it if you don't know how to do it.
