Blimey calf muscles can be really annoying! I decided on a long rest with a bit of cycling to fill the gaps and it was all going well. Then one night I decided to trot whilst walking the dog and my right calf felt a bit stiff afterwards. Was my own fault as I did no warm up at all and started off too fast. Annoyingly the dog loved it! Thankfully, my calf was just a bit tight rather than injured and the left calf felt absolutely fine. Anywyay, this evening I thought I’d have another go at Week 3 of my Runna training plan. and picked up on Run 2 – 6.2 km of Hill training leaving me with 5 km (Thursday) and 12 km (Saturday), classified as Easy and Long respectively. Previously I had to cut my 12 km run due to the original problem with my left calf back at the end of September.
On tonight’s effort I felt perfectly fine.
Overall progress can be seen here.
