Normally around 10 or 11 days before a marathon I'd do my last speed workout. But since I'm still recovering from BCM that wasn't seeming very smart. Decided to do some not-too-intense hill repeats just so I could get my heart rate up for a while without pounding my legs.
Ended up doing 8 repeats and I'm feeling quite pleased with how my legs are feeling through the day. The lingering calf pains are almost gone and in general the legs are feeling much lighter than they've felt since BCM. I did start out feeling pretty sluggish warming up but ended up feeling pretty good by the end. So nice to start feeling 'normal' again.
