I am sure glad I took yesterday off.  This is the first long run since my half ironman and the first run where everything felt pretty good.  The calf was still tight for the first few miles, but I never had any pain with it.  I felt a little twinge in the left quad one time for just a second and then it was gone.  I kept the pace slow so I really didn't feel like I was working hard at all and tried to just get into a comfortable rythem and just run.  It felt great to run with no pain.   And the weather was PERFECT!

AP:  8:23

At 11 I headed to the pool to get a swim in.  I did about 30 laps which took 35 minutes.  Just worked on form and tried to enjoy a little time in the pool.

Nice run and swim. It sounds like you will be ready to start marathon training Monday.
