Went a little further today, wanted to shoot for 2 miles and see how I felt. Still bothered by that sore calf muscle, especially on the uphills, so did a lot of "run for a few minutes, walk for 20 seconds" and repeat. Still feel pretty out of shape and carrying these extra pounds isn't helping any. On a scale of 1-10, my stamina level is about a 2, so I guess it can't get a heck of a lot worse. Not giving up though, just keep plugging along. Still feels like I have something like chronic fatigue or mono or whatever, even though the doctor said there was nothing wrong at my last visit, and nothing showed up on my blood test. Have another appointment coming up in early June, so I'll continue to see if I can lose some weight and keep up an exercise routine and then see what she says.

2nd half of the Thumb Butte loop. After power hiking to the summit, I ran down the easier and longer trail back to the base. Running downhill did not bother my calf as much.
Hiked up the very steep north side climb to the top of Thumb Butte. It's about 0.8 miles of relentless steep uphill, with an elevation gain of about 700 vertical feet in that distance. Rested for about 20 seconds before running down the 1.4 miles of the easier trail down the west side.
