Training Log Archive: hmklaff

Saturday trails with TREX. A great group run. Perfect conditions - cool, soft but not muddy trails, and gorgeous fall foliage (or as gorgeous as it gets in Houston). Everything felt good and it was tempting to overdo it, but I kept it close to my 1.5 hour goal.

Hermann loop. Warm, soupy morning. Legs felt pretty good - strong, if not particularly light. A small brick in the foundation. Think I'll try to string a few days in a row now that the calf isn't an issue (knock on wood).

Hermann loop. Calf test #2. Passed again. Miwok is now the official goal race, so this is sort of an official start to Miwok training. A long way to go as everything felt stiff (likely from some tiring car travel and poor sleep).

Short run on the trails to test the calf. It passed. Not much else to say about the run otherwise. Legs were heavy after the time off. Going to go short every other day this week until I'm sure the calf is healed.
