My left calf has been whispering to me the last few days but nothing bad. Woke up this morning and it was a little uncomfortable walking down my stairs but I ignored it, went out and started to run and I realized I was limping to avoid that calf.{at least I think that's the muscle that hurts. maybe it's something else, but I feel it in my left calf on the outside of my leg} And then I decided if I warm up it will stop hurting so I kept going, at 1 mile I stopped to stretch it and when I started again It still hurt, so I walked home. Did weights, arm, legs and core. And 30 minutes elliptical. I will stretch it and maybe ice it, Its not a horrible pain but it enough to know that I need to be careful. Bummer. I hope after a day if feels better.

Really? Dang! What time did you go? Wait, what day is it? I'm so confused. We're resting tomorrow, which is Thurs. right? That will be good for you. Hopefully the whispering will go away like mine did. Looking forward to the long run with you.

How's the calf today?

Iced it on and off all day yesterday and barely felt it all today. Doing 10 in the morning so I figured I better stay off it for one more day. But I think its great, I will know for sure tomorrow.

Good thinking. Have a great run tomorrow!
