Because my right calf had been giving me fits..I rested it for a couple weeks. I had already paid for the Cowtown Half, so I decided to show up and see how things went. Calf was fine. Feet were blistered. Finished in 1:55ish. Positive splits. Going to dust off the bikes...running has lost its excitement for me. I realize that running is a great joy for many of my friends...but it has turned into a painful chore. Instead of posting about my woes, until I'm ready to commit to regular training, I'm going to abandon this "Fast" running blog. Happy trails, folks!

5 miles around Texas Motorspeedway. Right calf very tight. Need to bring compression socks next time. Counting down to Cowtown Half marathon...it's been a long time since I've run that far!

Ran 10 miles on rail trail. Convinced my sherpa, Christian to ride his bike along to keep me company and carry my water. Nice 75 degree last day of January!
