Easy run with Frtiz, Jake, Nate, Steve and Collin from Liberty Park. 1:27:30. a Little warmer this morning but overcast. Calves were a bit tight. I've decided to retire the Altras.

Josh, do you think the Altras just hurt your calves too much? I was thinking about getting a pair to wear on occasion to see if it would help me with my calf issue that I get during and after races and speed workouts. Thoughts? Maybe I just need to really focus on stretching my calves more?

Altras do not help my calves. Everyone is different but for me, I get tight calves if I run more than 10-12 miles in them. They do have plenty of toe box room which you should like. Not sure what to do for the calves issue but some say to stretch them 2-3 times a day and maybe get the stick on them a bit.

Josh. Very impressed with your progression this year. Fantastic SGM and you are going to do some big things over the years. You are a stud...Look forward to running with you soon. Make IT Happen...
