Slow terrain run through black mountain reserve and up the mountain. Felt good and strong but enthusiasm for solo run was low so plodded along. Nice to run in terrain and no snakes always a bonus.

Jog down to Park Run. Calf/achilles some tightness but i thought should be ok and hopefully improve if I get through race. Bumped into GrantM on way down which was timely.

Parkrun. Race Director said Go while noone (well me) was listening so missed start. Felt strong and in control and tried to push the dreaded Didhams Close km. Consequently caught up with a group on the bridge at 4k or so and then had to hang on as they all seemed to push hard for home. Finished at the tail of the group but probably 10s quicker than if they hadnt been there. Calf/achilles tight at end but survived.

Had to be in early at work to let some tradies in so ran up on red hill. Calf much improved from wednesdays stretching but decided against intervals/hills. Wait another day and more stretching etc. Really nice to have morning run up through the bush and to the view over the Berra.
Commute. Pumped it on way home as late for pick up. Right calf nerve a bit tender/inflamed still since Stromlo Stomp so put off running for another day (and didnt do basketball last night).
