Running in Clover

Well this was it until the marathon Saturday.  Thought about 4, but did 30 minutes worth of really slow temp running which ended up being 3.1 miles.  Left calf is real tight and sore along with left hammy and hip (all problems I have had during the whole marathon training).  Hope some ice, ibuprofen, and rest will get it all good for Saturday.  Suppose to be a real cold start Saturday morning.

Ran a mixed up 5 today...1 mile at slow slow pace...10 minutes at around race pace...10 minutes slightly faster than race pace...then backed down in 5 minute intrevals.  Felt good.  Gonna do 4 easy tomorrow.  Hopefully no pains.  Some tightness in calf near achellies but that is usual for me.

Only 6.3 today on the treadmill.  Went really slow.  Left leg feeling okay.  Hopefully taking it easy this week will get all the tweeks and twinges out.  Will take Tuesday and Thursday off, but in a little speed work on short milage Wednesday, and only a few easy miles Friday before the marathon Saturday.
