Legs are a little sore today especially my calves, need to be stretching on and off all day. Need to do my stomach exercises also. I can do the waist/abs strengthing all day at work.

Very satisfied at how this weeks training is going. I bought some new shoes to since soreness in feet and legs is a sign to replace the old ones.

Last weeks training went really well. I started a new week yesterday with a 4 miler on the hilly park route in 49:30.

Today I did the test mile, 12:09 an improvement over the baseline mile on the middle of this month.

I've been slow in keeping this up. Had a good PR today on my 4 mile hill route. 46:10, that's the latest in a steady improvement over the last couple of weeks since I returned to walking races.
