I ran for 30 mins on the bike path along the river near my mom's house. It was nice and cool with low humidity but my calf tightened up almost immediately. I don't know why - I had warmed up for 5 mins, and stretched a little. This was the same calf that I had torn last Christmas so I was very concerned. I ran slowly but managed to do about 3 miles in the 30 mins.<br><br>
My mom said to me - when was the last time you ate a banana? She's right -- it's been about 3 or 4 days. That could have been the issue. I did drink gallons of water yesterday so it wasn't a dehydration issue.<br><br>
Anyway, I'm going to skip running tomorrow but will try again Tuesday. I'm starting week 4 of the running program tomorrow (well, Tuesday).<br><br>
I miss my hubby & dogs while I'm here at my mom's but I'm heading home tonight.<br><br>
