Not sure what to expect this morning with my calf on the mend for the last week and a half, but I felt like it was close to 100% yesterday doing cross training so I headed out with Blake this morning for a long run.
The first 16 miles we kept it nice and easy keeping my HR in the 130s then we dropped to mp for the last 4 miles doing those at 7:05 pace. I felt great. That was the most energy I've had on a long run in a long time and my calf gave me no problems. I also did this run on only water and the last time I ate was yesterday's dinner around 5:30. I've been training my body to burn fat for fuel and I think it is working really well.
