Run Maynard, Run!

At 3.4 miles, something in my right calf when, "doink!" and I ended up limping the last .2 back home.  :(  I really really really hope it's nothing!

Jogged 3 laps, walked 1, jogged 3, walked 1, jogged 3, walked 1, jogged 2, and then jogged the final 2 barefoot.  4 total miles at the high school track.

4.0 miles / 45:14 / 11:20 A.P.

I thought on the first lap that the "doink" from Monday was going to be an issue as I had a sore knot in the back of my calf, but it loosened up pretty quick and the rest of the run was quite enjoyable.  The knees are still a bit stiff and rusty.

Hiked Timp Friday night/Saturday morning.  Fourteen or so miles, two blisters, a sunburned forehead, and WAY too many people on the trail--it's good to be home.  It was a might cooler up there though!

Spent the night at Emerald Lake, and at 4:00 a.m. I was awakened by the sound of lots and lots of people working their way up both the Timpooneke and Aspen Grove trails.  As I looked over towards the saddle, there was a constant and steady stream of flashlights.  Not too much longer those lights appeared 1300 feet above my bed at the peak.  There had to have been at least 100 people up there at the top for the sunrise this morning!

Saw more mountain goats on this trip than I have on all my previous trips combined!
