Speedbump, what speedbump?!

I ran today at lunch time.  3.2 miles.  I took it easy with a smidge over 10 minute pace.  My calf held up nicely.  I felt it, but no pain.  I did get some strange looks with the ice pack strapped to my calf after my run.  Good thing, ice packs don't violate the dress code! ;)  I know I should just do it, but I am dreading doing my home exercises.  I know if I slack off, my calf will not last through the Emerald Half Marathon this weekend. Anyone else going to be running the race?  Let me know and maybe we can grab a snack afterward. 

Today, a friend asked if I was "set on doing the marathon."  It took me a second to think about that question. I means I wouldn't put myself in harm's way for it, but I like to keep my word.  I told the world (or at least cyberspace) that I was going to do it and so I will.  Where I'm from... (Cue Digable Planets), your word is who you are. So with that, I am off to do my exercises.  Dreaming of a week from now when Angelo (still hoping he's cute) will help me with them! Until next time, keep running, walking or otherwise moving!
