Wind Chill

This is the first morning I've seen a wind chill on the NOAA website in the forecast. Its a harbinger of the coming season.

31 F. Slight sensation in my calves. I think I need to be aware, but not worried. Signed up for the 40th MCM last night. It will be my 6th MCM, my first was 10 years ago. Easy run under a half moon. Did some leg strength work after the run.

49 F. Its foggy outside. I love running in the fog. Hopefully won't get rained on......much. Going for 4 miles today. Woke up groggy.

35 F, but no rain. Who can complain? The mostly full moon is haloed in mist. Ran 4.0. Feeling sluggish, but legs not heavy. Calves are making themselves felt, but its not pain. Ran 22 last week. Need to be gentle this week. Need to address inappropriate systemic tiredness.

Opted for 3.25 miles in my subtropical basement gym on the treadmill rather than dark icy roads.

Stepping

A week ago, I tried box stepping on an 18-inch box as cross-training while I can't run. I stepped for 15 minutes. I've done the work out three times since then, incrementing by 5 minutes each time. This morning, I stepped for 35 minutes. It was pretty tiring.
