Hope your calf was just a twinge & is better today CT. 1st Wed league XC today. running them with a Garmin is going to be an eye-opener. Gen spec is 5k for ladies, 10k for the men. todays was 2 laps for ladies 3 for men around local RAF camp. Slow drag at beginning of lap then a few minor ups & downs & logs to jump. Forgot to press start for about 400yds & recorded 3.41 miles & averaged 7 13 pace. Not sure what pace it felt like as was stuck behind a crowd in the first lap which kept the pace down, prob not a bad thing. Came 5th which is better than usual so either I'm running well or the better runners were busy & didn't turn out!

Enjoyable session.
