Got up early this morning to "test" my calf at the track. Walked for .5 then ran slowly for a mile. Stretched then did a 3 mile tempo run. Splits were 6:37, 6:45, and 6:33 with a 1 minute break after two miles to stretch my calf and massage it. I am so bugged my leg is still hurting me a little and I think I am compensating a little with my other leg. I can tell my stride is a "little off" and I have to constantly concentrate on my stride so that I don't hurt it again. Yes-it feels so much better than a week ago but I want to be 100% so I can get back into my regular training and its not close to 100%. It is still nagging at me and I am so frustrated because I don't have time to waste since the marathon is 4 weeks from Saturday. I was holding back today bc of the leg and it was so frustrating.

Have confidence that you are still super fit and keep taking care of that leg. Don't let this small hiccup get into your head.
