March Recap

March was awesome. The best month of training I've had in a really long time. What could go wrong?

Oops.

Aside from the whole calf explosion that has made April a big fat 0 so far, I'm failrly pleased with what I was able to do in March. I think it's going to be a solid base for the rest of the summer. That's assuming the calf is just a minor set back, which I'm pretty confident it is. I might try to run tomorrow, but I'm not sure I'm going to have the time with my work schedule. Either way, it's feeling better, and I'll definitely get out on Saturday.

Here are the numbers:
Miles: 76.5
Ski Days: 9
Hours: 19.75

Wow. That's almost real.

Here's the question: Either I'm doing enough to be on my way to being a real runner. Or, my calf is telling me that the totals for March were too much. Needless to say, I really hope it's the former. With that in mind, I have a race in 9 days. *gulp*

Good luck with the rehab. I hope it's just a temporary problem.

If it makes you feel any better, Willow and I are both currently sidelined with calf problems as well. It's not as dramatic as your calf explosion, but still annoying. Who needs calves anyway?

Damn, I hope it's not contagious!

I can walk today without limping or pain. That's a nice thing. Short run tomorrow. I'll be "well rested" for the race.
