| No running. Calf still sore. 4:30 p.m. Gold's Gym - St. George. 3x15x6 machines upper body weights. Walked 20 minutes on treadmill, easy at 3 mph. Tested the calf running briefly after 10 minutes. Has improved some, but I think I'll need a few more days. Great way to start the New Year! | | Add Comment |

St. George 1/2 Marathon (13.1 Miles) 01:43:05, Place overall: 200, Place in age division: 7 | | Slow miles | Fast miles | Total Distance | | 0.00 | 13.10 | 13.10 |
| St. George 1/2 Marathon. 1:43:05. 7:52 AP. 7th in M55-59. 200 OA field. 142 Gender. Nice, clear and sunny day!! Nippy at the start at about 34 degrees. Gradually warming throughout. Felt pretty decent. Calf nearly 100% and wasn't a factor. Hammies threatened a couple of times, but nothing materialized. Definitely need to get more stretching in. 6 minutes faster than last year. Tooele Running Club had 25-30 runners running today. Rick ran 1:30:15, good for 5th in M25-29. The kid has only been running since March. |
