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.

Most likely no running today. Injury??? Not sure yet but my lower left calf or achilles is way too sore to run on. Ugh! I told my wife at the end of last week I was one mile away from injury. I kind of was feeling beat up but now there seems to be a lot more truth to it than I meant. 

Busy with yard and house and some F1 projects so hopefully by staying active I won't drop tons of fitness. However this might be the sign to not run Mesquite after all.

No run today. The calf is still sore. I can't decide if it's a knot or a tare.

The calf felt a little better walking around the house with the last few days off. So I tried a run on the treadmill. Within a half mile the pain in the lower calf hurt again. I just kept the pace steady and the pain was runnable for EZ pace. This doesn't give me much hope about springing right back into things. Maybe it's a good time to start my winter down time.

After a rough week of hard yard work and not running because of  a sore calf I was ready to try it again. Ran from my house up into town to pick up the truck where Mik'L left it to catch the shuttle. I pushed Myler in the jogger and it was just a beautiful afternoon. I felt good going into the run about the calf and it held up never bothering me. I'm sure if the run were longer or faster issues could have risen but I was just happy to get this run in. Maybe I'll get something going again next week?
