Hope your calves are feeling better. My experience this week was similar, running on snow and ice with Yaktrax. One ankle felt pretty crummy. But today, on bare pavement, it was like I had new legs. Where did you get that 60F weather? I have your snow. Wanna trade?
Thanks, yes, my calves are fine now, no damage done. I am down in Southern California in Carlsbad and also outside Valley Center at my in laws avocado farm, so I run in San Marcos, half way between, nice easy running, here is my general course I have been following:

Geez, I read your account about the tool bandits, scary stuff, glad it turned out OK. Good idea to carry the pepper spray, if not just for mean dogs. Me, I lost all my hearing two years ago from some autoimmune thing (sudden senorineural hearing loss) and I now have a cochlear implant, but I take it out to run so am completely deaf while running. It makes things kind of interesting, hard to be social when running in company, and of course can't hear the traffic or farm dogs coming at me! But all part of the adventure I guess! I would have been worthless in the situation you got in though.
If you are up to 17 miles already you are way ahead of me. I am shooting for Ogden Utah marathon May 16, conditional on staying injury free and motivated.!
