Day 131 - Lock Down

Alcohol Units: 0
Running Units: 1 + miles
Other exercise Units: 0
Stretching Units: Yes

Started out at group practice tonight running. Very very quickly the little calves clamped down. Like locked down and would not release. I tried to stretch it out. I tried to walk it off. I ended up limping to the car.

The drive home I was almost crying my legs hurt so badly. Yes - almost crying. I would like to state for the record I have a high threshold for pain.

I slathered my legs with icy hot when I got home. I'm hoping I'll be able to walk or stretch tonight before I go to bed.
