RE: A streak runner?
Unfortunately, last week I had to stop running due to injury. I did only four runs because on Wednesday morning when I was getting home after doing 9 km I felt a sudden twinge in my right calf, so I stopped and got home walking and did some stretching. On Thursday evening, thinking I was better, I went for a soft run but after three kilometres I felt a twinge as well. So I decided not to go for a run for a few days. Actually, I had entered a 9 km race in Almería but I didn’t take part in it to avoid a bigger injury. However, I went for another soft run on Monday but I felt some pain in my right calf after a few minutes, so I went on walking and did some stretching to go on jogging but in all I could do just two kilometres. So, I haven’t been running since Monday but this morning when I started to walk, I felt pain in my right calf, which is odd since I just only felt pain in it when I was jogging but not when I was walking. I’m worried because instead of feeling less pain, it is increasing in spite of having been using the gel Voltaren or the spray Reflex and even the MG 40 body massager.
I think that running every day is not good for me. When I get better, I want to take at least two rest days on which I could do another sport such as cycling, walking, swimming or just nothing.
4th week of November : 7 + 7 + 9 + 3 = 26 km.
Streak running : 540 km in 73 days.
YTD: 1182 km.
Weight : 80,8 kilos.
