| Met James this morning to run. Ran first 2 miles easy and then started a tempo run. First mile was 6:31 and felt decent. About another 0.5 mile later started having pain just below my left calf, but above my achilles. Felt tight, almost like it wanted to tear. No really crampy or anything. Couldn't get it to loosen up, so had to bag the run and walk back to the car.
Last few weeks have been frustating from a running standpoint. I have had issues with my achilles, hamstring and now this. Not quite sure where to go from here. I should be ramping up and getting ready for St. George, but I have been doing the opposite. I took last week off from running and it looks like I may need some more time off. Not too encouraging heading to St. George. If anyone has advice, that would be great.
Got home and rode an hour on the bike.

| Warmed up on the bike for 20 minutes with some speed intervals mixed in. Tested out the calf on the TM. Ended up only doing 2 miles before calf started to feel like it was tightening up, so I called it quits. Not too encouraging. Lifted and did 30 minutes on the elliptical. Not feeling too good about St. George at the moment.

| 8 miles @ 7:31 pace around Holladay. Didn't know what to expect for this run with the calf issues recently. Decided to test it out and stop at any signs of trouble. Calf behaved, but I kept it nice and easy and never really pushed the pace. Happy to get in 8 miles.

| Plans changed for the weekend and I wasn't going to be able to get a long run on Friday or Saturday. So had to fit it in this afternoon. Started on wasatch just above foothill and run up Emigration. 8.5 miles up. Picked it up a little coming down and did 6 miles in the 6:30-640's range. Added some miles to get to 19. Achilles seems to have held up ok with the uphill miles, but we'll see. |
