Off to a slow start this week, but I made it to the YMCA for 5 this morning. Around 8 the first two, then 7:47 miles. Felt faster than that, took awhile to get into a rhythm. My left calf and achilles is pretty sore, so I'm stretching and rubbing it down now. 39:30 supernova red -- 209

5 on the YMCA treadmill. I spent most of yesterday massaging my left calf, but it's still a little sore. Less than yesterday, and it doesn't bother my stride too much. Two miles at 8/min pace, then three at 7:47. 39:15 supernova red -- 214

| | Five on the Y treadmill, missed yesterday which throws off the week a bit. Long run tomorrow. I'm pretty happy with my fitness now, after the first month of the year building some base, so hopefully next week I can start varying the workouts. Legs feel pretty good, soreness in my left calf seems to be diminishing. supernova red -- 219

I had to be at a meeting early this morning so I skipped Slug Club. I'm glad I did because the clouds cleared in the afternoon and it was beautiful, felt like April. 51 degrees and just a few clouds, wore shorts for the first time this year. I did the Manette-Warren Bridge loop, then kept on Park Avenue to downtown. Once downtown I went down to the marina and ran out on the pier, there's a half-mile you can do out there, right on the water. Some guys were working, putting in a piling or something, so I cut it a little short. Other than that I had the pier to myself. Then back across the Manette Bridge and back Shore Drive. I'm guessing about 6.5 miles, based on pace (pretty good most of the run, felt between 7 and 7:30) and time. 49:00. supernova red -- 225
