Had a smidge of right calf pain on my Saturday morning run, so I stopped a bit early, wanting to do a longer run after my shift. Glad I stopped there because my shift ended up being over 7 hours and all that time on my feet probably would have been bad for it if I had gone any longer, felt the calf for most of the shift but didn't get any worse. Had a cute nurse ask for my number at the end of the shift so def worth it @Connor. Jogged a bit today after med school studying, but then remembered how frustrated I was last time I hurt my calf because I kept starting again too early so I went inside and did some intense biking, hit 9 miles in 24:30, definetly the fastest I've ever biked. Did core and some lifting including some lighter calf raises, and jogged back to my car and didn't feel the calf at all. Should clarify that it wasn't the same place as last time, but since the only issues I've had this year have been my calves I'm gonna start doing calf lifts to make them stronger. Probably good to run right now but I'll take tomorrow off and do a long bike workout to supplement and rest the calf a bit more for good measure.
