i started the week with a sore tibia, so i thought it might be wise to rest most of the week. it was hard to resist the temptation until i hurt my calf muscle during my first nearly-barefoot run in the vibram fivefingers. thankfully by race day on sunday my tibia felt great and my calf felt great. i had a blast at the omaha marathon. it is possible i may have run a bit faster without the encounter with the police car, but at least i got a story out of the deal.
