First ever Sbarro run. Ran from me casa to 11th ave, down Memory Grove, to the City Creek food court, and then back home. Feels good to be running outside now, especially in the rain.

My PF is back with a vengeance and my lower legs are killing me though and I don't understand why. Previous to this year I have never even had sore calves after a big run. Is this just what it is like after a year layoff? Is my form weird because I think I am still favoring my good side? Is this just what it is like to get older? Is it the shoes? Is it all the stretching I am doing to try and make it better? Is it my diet? Or is it because I sit on my bum most of the day? This article scares me!

If you exercise for 30 minutes a day, she says, “take time to reflect on your activity levels for the remaining 23.5 hours,” and aim to “be active, sit less.”

Calf pain is way common it seems when first running. I dealt with it for like 6 months when I first started. Are you getting plenty of potassium and calcium? I think things feeling a little off are probably just from getting your body used to running again.

That article scares me also! I sit all day and I hate it.

That is what I have been thinking... my body just getting used to the pounding. But it seems a little ridiculous so I have been wondering if it could be something else.

Hmmm probably not getting enough calcium. Interesting thought. Will go take an Emergen-C now...
