| Headed out the door for a 20 miler, but right off the bat I could tell my calf wasn't right, so I turned around went home and drove to the gym. 1 hour elliptical 15 minutes stationary bike. STUPID CALF!

| My calf was sore this morning, and I was bumming with last night's failed run. I knew I shouldn't run, so I did the next best thing: Stairs. 10 min. elliptical 40 min stair (8 repeats- 3min run/2 min walk) 10 min. stationary bike My calf is still pretty sore this afternoon, but it felt good to have a good workout. If things don't improve quickly, my chances of BQing UVM are going to be slim.

Got out for a run this morning. My calf was a bit tight at first, but then loosened up. After getting to the track I did 5 100m strides to ensure that I was warmed up and that my calf was feeling fine. Everything seemed to be good, so I started a 1600m repeat with 800m jog recovery work out. The first mile went great. I ran it a bit faster than I wanted to 6:21, but it felt really easy. The second mile was going great until I had about 200m left to go when I could tell my calf was about to do its thing. I immediately stopped as to not to cause too much damage. I walked the last 200m then stretched a bit then ran home very cautiously. I iced the calf when I got home. It is now sore to walk on, but will probably feel fine by tomorrow. I think I'm going to have to cross train the rest of the week and then give it another try on Monday. I can't believe I'm going to have to try and BQ with mostly just cross training, but I think if my calf holds up, I'm in good enough shape to do it. I'll just have to trust my cross training. Total run- 7 miles PM- 1 hour deep water running

| 90 minutes deep water running. Calf feels much better today, but still sore. I'm going to wait till Monday and give it another go. If I can't run without incident Monday, I'm not going to run any more until race day at UVM.

| Today was hardcore cross training day. 10 minutes elliptical warm up 50 minutes stairs- 10 repeats: 3 min run/ 2 min walk. This was a lot like doing a Yasso's workout. It was definitely just as hard or harder than any Yasso's I've ever done. 10 minutes elliptical 40 minutes cycle 10 minutes elliptical Total 2 hours cross training and a bucket load of sweat. I was gross. | | Comments(4) |
