I managed to do the 5k today! My calves were really sore nearly the whole run again. I need to take time to stretch them out before going. If I run more than 3 miles, it works itself out, but when 3 miles is the whole run, it sure makes for a painful one!
My first race of the season is in 9 days. I'm excited! I don't know how fast I'll run, or if I'll get a personal record, but I'm going to have a great race, regardless!
Distance: 3.12
Time: 33:03
Pace: 10:35
Water water water!! I find that my number one reason for sore calves is that I'm not drinking enough. Stretching helps too... that's true. :)
