Sore Calves

Hey Kids,

Well I had my longest run to date in the current workout cycle yesterday. My wife and I went on a run with the dog in Bidwell Park. We went on our normal route which starts at the parking lot near the playground. I run down the path with wife and dog in tow and run back the way I came. This particular path will eventually meander its way to upper Bidwell park which in an off road fashion will go a long ways. I know that on this path without going off roading I can go at least 6 miles in one direction because I have done a 12 mile round trip when I was training for a half marathon. Anyway about five minutes into the run the dog needed to stop to do his business and my calves were already sore!! Not a good sign, but they held out and with only 1 break in the middle to walk, and the dog's business break which isn't really a break at all, I was able to run 3 miles which felt great.

My wife and I were also able to discover that she is jealous of a girl she grew up with who started a very profitable website. Quite frankly I'm jealous too but we agreed that we shouldn't dwell on it because it will just make us envious and unhappy.
