Ran 5 easy miles with Darin at lunch. Calf felt much better,but still not ready to push it too far or too fast.

Lunchtime solo run. Shaking out the cobwebs. It feels like it's been months since I've run. :) 55F, 4 SSE, sunny Calf pain 1/10. A little tight, will think about stretching a little.

Lunchtime run w/ Darin. It was a bit windy (15N) and felt like a lot of work to run 7:30s. I really need to start ramping up the miles. I feel like I've lost a lot of my fitness from earlier this year. Calf still a little tight.

Lunchtime run w/ Darin. It was windy again today, but this time out of the South, so the run back to work was a lot easier. Still feel like I lost quite a bit of my fitness in the past month. But, it's coming back.

| 8 miles on the Rail Trail. In the 7th mile, my right calf started tightening...arggg. I walked, stretched, then changed my stride to finish the 8 miles. 72F, S10, sunny AP: 7:54 | |

Ran from my sister's house to my brother's house (3.65 miles). Vistited for a little while, then ran back to my sister's.
Right calf is a mess. Massage, stretching, ice...don't seem to be helping. It might be time to quit running for an extended period of time?? I don't know. This is a major bummer. | |

Decided to give the right calf/shin/leg 9 days off. The swelling and pain subsided. I was nervous but managed an easy run with some walking without any calf pain. I'm still a bit nervous about finishing 13.1 miles on Sunday -- if I have to walk I'll walk. No pressure. No expectations.
