A very frustrating run today my left calf hurt more today than when it first started to be a bother. Not sure what to do at this point, it was a very uncomfortable tun today. No use in running anymore this week or until it feels better. maybe try riding the bike tomorrow. I did do 25 min of bowflex on my upper body, then finished with 200 crunches.

When I awoke this morn my leg was really sore around the calf and it was very uncomfortable to walk on. By the time I got off work it was feeling much better and started to loosen up. So I decided to try a run but my calf was not ready still hurt to push off so I opted to go for a 45 min bike ride. Got to try and keep the cardio  up some how. I have a Doc's Appt. on Friday morn to have it looked at. I finished today's workout with 25 min on Bpwflex upper body and 200 crunches.

My calf felt a lot better walking today, I tried to run but it would not let me. I wish I knew what was going on. I rode my bike for an hour and then did 30 min on the eliptical. I am trying to do what I can to keep my fitness up. It will be interesting to see what the Doc says on Friday morn.

My calf felt good today so I decided to try a small easy run. The pain is still there after a few min. of running. It has been a month now and I am starting to get a little concerned . Not sure what to expect at the Doc's tomorrow. I hope he can help me past this injury quick, SGM is a month from sat. May not be able to do it this year. Cross my fingers and toes.
