Running Through Life

Again, track at the Armory. Spring break for the university so the Armory was basically empty.

Another FARTLEK - ain't that a cool word??

Not a bad workout - 4 miles. still the back of my calves (achilles tendon?) killing me early on. This doesn't happen at LOW. I'm thinking since the track is only 200 meters maybe it is the curves. Always running on the left edge of my feet? I am not sure. But it really is kind of painful. It eventually goes to a dull ache with time and doesn't seem to bother me the next day.

Any ideas?

here's the rundown of what we did -

6 laps of warm-up.
1 lap 80% followed by 1 lap recovery and then 2 laps at normal pace.
