streets feature a remarkable amount of incline and decline. I ran up Guerrero Street to 21st Street, over to Dolores Street, around the park, up Dolores to 21st Street again and then zig zagged around until I began to feel a tight itching in my calf muscle around the 3rd mile. I ran another cool down mile to make it about 4 miles. It was humid and warm and I was dripping with sweat when I got done. My leg would probably have lasted another mile were it not for the hills, but they probably got a better workout last night. Overall, I'm feeling good, and I think I'm on track for another 4 or 5 miles on Thursday. Maybe the weather will hold too?Tuesday, January 9, 2007

streets feature a remarkable amount of incline and decline.
