Mandy's meanderings!

Feeling okay today.  My left calf muscle is mad at me for some reason, so I didn't get nearly the jogging distance I wanted.  I did go a little further on the walking though-trying to walk out the calf muscle.  Maybe I just need to eat more bananas.  Did .20 mile warm-up, jogged 1.55 miles, then walked 2 miles with the speed varying between 4.6 and 5.1 mph.  Total time was 43:10.  Working on stretching the calves for the rest of the day.

I was a little leery about running today.  I did some extra stretching and used the foam roller on my left calf-talk about PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I rolled it out for about 10 minutes, then thought I'd give the run a shot.  It went great!  No knee problems and the calf felt just fine.  Did a .25 mile warm-up, jogged 2.85 miles, then did a .5 mile cool down.  I didn't even need to have a potty break!  Total time was 37:10.  Don't know if I'm running tomorrow-I have my ultrasound at 10 am, so we'll see if I fit the run in beforehand.
