Evening run. Cold, stretched calf before run and at stop lights but it was tight on and off throughout the run, even with yesterday's massage. I think I feel the tightness more on uphills and it dissipates on downhills.

Ran in morning about 7:40 a.m. Very cold (22 degrees) and windy but sunny. Felt good to run in morning. Calf ok - careful to stretch.

Started out for run yesterday but stopped after about 90 seconds because right calf was so tight. Worried about it last night and this morning, stretched a lot. This morning, did yoga, then kept stretching throughout the day. Ran in the early evening, relaxed pace. Calf muscle felt much looser, though still felt twinges of tightness when stopped at traffic lights.

Evening run with Justin. Relaxed, conversation pace. 33 degrees but didn't feel that cold. Wind down, I guess. Sidewalks mostly clear of snow/ice, though being careful. Calf still a bit tight - need to get back to stretching more.
