Today my calf muscles cooperated, as expected. I was a tad bit tentative at the beginning of my 6-mile run, but no twinges or anything reminiscent of Thursday's debacle. I'm more than happy to report a routine, ordinary run. It's a nice autumn day in north Texas, and temperature was about 60 degrees when I did my late-morning outing. I probably saw three kids on bikes with training wheels, being chased by a parent or two. Kind of funny to see so many on one run but must be the season. The kids looked happy and the grown-ups did, too. Other than that, several people out walking dogs, cyclists, and a few runners. My pace ended up a little under 11 minutes/mile. Not great but it's giving me a base so I can ramp up the speed over the coming months before it gets hot outside again and I return to a snail's pace with walk breaks.
