My calves are absolutely fried.  I wore my racing flats on Saturday and I think that my legs are more sore than usual because they do not provide as much support.  It hurts to walk but they really don't bother me while running.  I'm just going to take it easy until the soreness subsides.

You had a nice race on Saturday. It's like a badge of honor to to have sore legs after that.

Seems I always feel soreness most in my calves.

if it hurts to walk but not run, you'll just have to run everywhere you go today

Nice run I am sure you will feel better soon.

I used to have that problem with my racing flats (sore calfs that is) until I started doing 1 run a week in them. It solved the problem, but who knows, maybe that is how I hurt my foot. Nice run this morning.

So ... no one ever told me ... what was/is the deal with Pop Tarts???

Teena - Pop Tarts are Rhett's pre-race fuel strategy. I went to the pantry before the race and that was all that was in there so I gave them a shot.
