RE: Insectember
All very relevant to my own position MLCMM. As I came into the last 100 of last nights club tempo run I got a dense, hot pain deep in my calf. Luckily I wasn't really pushing it and slowed down immediately to a walk and then stretched. I reckon it's relatively minor.
And I'd just put my name down for the local winter cross-country league.
I'm not going to run for 7-10 days certainly. But I will go hard on the bike if I get a chance. And when it's healed I'll ask the Mrs to try and break-down any scar tissue in the muscle as build-up of this can cause weakness and recurrance.
Have you thought about a turbo-trainer for your bike? Intervals on this can really help to maintain cardio fitness.
You should get back-on-track; just make sure you throw all the usual recovery stuff at it: ice, massage, compression.
