Summary:
This is a first for me: running before 11am. I generally run in the late afternoon or early evening but had to adjust my schedule as I fly from Norfolk before noon.
Since I had an empty stomach and having ran yesterday evening I knew I wouldn't run far so just set out to run as far as I felt comfortable. Right out of the gate my left calf was telling me it was still sore. I backed off the pace and decided a mile would be far enough. Very nice morning though with plenty of squirrels dodging amongst the trees in Western Branch Park.
Emailed the folks organizing the Tough Enough 5K to check on a course map. It's available but since USATF has no certified it yet their office has not prepared digital copies. The lady was nice enough to give me her office location and I will stop by there on my visit tomorrow to pick up an old fashioned photocopy.
Nike+ appears to have eaten today's info again. I will be patient and see if it pops up later. However, this is becoming annoying quickly and destroying my enthusiasm for the gadget.
