12 moderate, 6:55 overall avg. I wanted to cruise the final 10 in 6:15-6:30, but made it to mile 8 before my calf flared and I backed off. Tried 5 x 30s on my toes, and the calf seemed to handle it okay. Now it's in more pain than I've felt recently. I'm hoping it's because I'm doing a little more rehab and it's just reacting to that. Heel lifts, scraping, and massage. Trying not to get bummed out that this is still lingering.

AM - 10 easy

PM - Elliptical workout. 10 min WU, 30 min hard, 5 min cool down. I think I did a better job of getting this one into the right workout zone. At least it didn't feel like race effort like the last one.

12 easy. Calf felt great, though it was tender while stretching after.

22 mile long run. Since I can't run my workouts yet, I figured this would be a good chance to get a good long run in. Pace was honest with a 7:04 avg, and had to keep it reigned in for awhile to keep from going faster. I definitely hit the wall in the last 4 miles. Went from 6:50s to 7:20-7:30s.
