Evening run today as I was to lazy to get out of bed this morning, I ran out towards payson and extended up the hill and then turned and headed for home my pace was just steady nothing to crow about. My quads feel so good but my darn calf's will not loosen up and they are week and tired all the time, I just don't get it! I have been doing some strengthening exercises for my quads and it seems to be paying off but I have also been doing some calf raises and its not paying off, so what the heck! It doesn't make any sense! My average pace for the run was 8:42 with my HR average at 147 and my total time was 44:53.

After the run I jumped on the elliptical for 20 minutes and the RPM was above 90 to 95 with some resistance, after that I finished up with my upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See ya tomorrow.

Is crowing good or bad? I thought I saw you this morning and turned around but it wasn't you.

I guess it can be good and bad at the same time, crowing that is, but that day it was not good:) I hope your doing alright, I haven't seen you in awhile either.
