The soreness in my right leg still persisted today, even though I wore my recovery socks during my entire shift at work. However, compared to yesterday, my calf muscle was feeling a little bit better. In order to not put too much pounding on my right leg, I put in 1.7 miles of on the elliptical before jumping on the treadmill for 2.9 miles at an easy pace.
Also, a winter storm came through the Salt Lake Valley and cleared out the inversion! Consequently, I could not resist going for a short run under the clear, starry, late-evening sky. As a result, I slipped on my Five Fingers (i.e., my theory is that if I work into my routine a little bit of bare feet running, it might help me improve my gait and work the soreness out of my right calf) and jogged over to Big Cottonwood Park and completed three laps around the softball complex before heading back. The total distance of this run was 2.2 miles at an easy pace.
In regards to my non-running workout, I completed 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
