Woe to Gazelle week 6

A rather painful week, before recovering this week. A 9k run, a 5k run, and a 2.5k run coupled with a sore calf muscle and 90% humidity. The humidity did me in on the 9k run, well before the calf.

“You just learn to run through the niggles.” Aaron stated about my calf questioning. Problem being that a niggle to me is a massive oh no, not another injury! After 3 years of trying to run and constantly getting injured a niggle may as well be everest. So my recovery week is well timed to take care of my calf, IT band that is grumbling, and my technique that is irritating my calf. Don’t slap the foot down! Don’t slap the foot down!
