Denver Marathon Training Injury Report (Take 3)

I seem to be doing better and better with the injury. I haven't run much, and when I do, it's short distances. But I self-massage my calves every morning and evening, and I bought one of these. This, plus massaging with sports cream and applying heat seems to be doing the trick. My calf is still stiff in the mornings, but it quickly loosens up, and I don't feel it at all just walking around anymore.

Today's run was supposed to be a long run of 18 miles according to The Plan. I had no intention of doing that. I was shooting for 14. However, I started feeling the calf tighten up at about 5 miles, so I turned it around and went home, for a total of 10.

Date: 08-31-2008
Distance: 9.99 mi.
Pace: 08:58
Duration: 01:29:34
