Notes
Long- if your calf feels solid or no risk then run as long as you feel like. No need to trash yourself though, but with Umstead in 14 weeks if you feel good then run. Up to 3:00. If you're very tired then just repeat last week's mileage.
Keep this all at MAF effort for the first half, nice and relaxed.
Over the second half just settle in to an effort that allows for the focus on volume.
Eat and hydrate as you feel.

Very good run this morning...wanted to go longer but calf soreness was starting to impact gait at the end. Calf was mostly OK for the duration but just started to get real uncomfortable around 15 or so. Overall calf is 7 out of 10 but it was good for the first 9 or so which is a big improvement. Missed running long...feels good to be tired again.
