Calves have been extra sore from Saturdays run. Not sure why? They weren't sore at all after STG and I did more miles at tempo... and pace was faster durning the tempo. Nonetheless they are sore. I could hardly walk yesterday. So this morning I just ran 4 EZ miles on the treadmill. They felt ok and I was able to get though the run. So I'll let them age like wine and try another short run this evening. 

No run this evening. Left achilles or lower calf is either very sore or possibly injured in some way.

I thought I was the only one with sore legs. Man that race beat my IT, quads and calves. It felt better running at 9:00 pace this morning than walking.

Nice work-out Saturday, that sounds awesome, you know you pushed hard if you are that sore. Great! What are you training for?

Thanks Amber. I'll most likely jump into one of the Mesquite races: half or full. Then after that I'll spend the winter trying to improve my half marathon speed and try to run a few through the winter and spring. Then the next marathon will be UV... as of now. I change my mind every single day:)

Scott- your right most of the time it's easier to run than it is to walk when your sore. Blessing or curse?
