Ha! I miss those runs too (though I think you may be confusing me with, um, you.) ;-) Tweaked my soleus/calf just enough to make it not really torn, but not able to handle running at all. Then, to add insult to this injury, I raced (horribly) on it at CVS a month ago. That was it. Haven't run since. Each time I thought I was close to having it healed, something boneheaded happened (i.e. running through TF Green to catch a plane to go to Minnesota to watch a marathon I was supposed to be in but was not because of the injury in the first place. Oh, the irony.) Finally went to a good physical therapist today and they'll have me on a regimen of stretching, strengthening and cautious recovery that should get me back at it in a few weeks with any luck. Yeah, I am so not a bikie. I can handle aching quads and beat up feet, but this saddle-sore ass thing is for the birds. Man, I miss running more than I've ever missed a girl (and that's a lot; I'm a horrible romantic for both.) Hope to see you out there soon. Nice job on that 50k. Man, you are having a spectacular year out there. Really psyched for you. I saw you're battling a couple pains there too. I'd say take it easy, but, well, y'know. ;-) Hope to see you at Cape Cod. I'll be out there with a camera and a lot of yelling.
