AM. My calf was a bit sore still when I got up this morning, reconfirming my decision not to run this week.  I did some core work followed by 40 minutes on the bike trainer.

PM. I went to a church soccer night with my boys tonight. I love playing soccer even more than I love running, but I used all my will power and just walked while they played soccer so I wouldn't injure my calf again. I found a nice steep hill to walk up and down and got in 3 miles while they played soccer. Walking hills is a good aerobic workout.

Thanks Burt. I'm committed to getting it better this week. It's an old recurring injury and I know if I just don't run for a full week it usually is good to go. I've just been being stubborn and trying to run a little on it which never works. Luckily I can still walk and bike.
