I ran out towards Payson this morning and my poor calf just would not cooperate! Very Painful, so after a mile I turned back for home and went down on the elliptical for 40 minutes just so I could feel like I did something! Joel is suppose to work on it again tonight, so I don't know what to think... Very disappointed and really, really, frustrated! Every year getting ready for St George this happens, every D@#$ Year! Same injury! Same place! Same frustration!!!!

Later!

I warmed up on the elliptical for 2 miles and then I went out on the road for 5 miles and some change. I ran out towards Mini GU corner and it was way hot, I usually run in the mornings but I couldn't today so I went this afternoon. It was pretty windy and way warm but I survived, my calf seemed okay but it would be sore when I stopped so that was a little of a concern but it did better than I thought it would. Average pace for the run was 8:29 with a total time of 43:00 even, I had soccer practice with Ethan after my run so no time for anything else today.

See ya tomorrow.

60 minutes on the elliptical and probably the same tomorrow, that's all my PT will let me do for now so I will have to live with it.

Later.
