The gym is three miles from my house...and I no where near ran the whole distance...but I ran the 3-eight minute intervals that are required for this week and walked the rest. I was planning on doing an hour Zumba class and then some lifting...and then Matt was going to pick my lazy butt up because I didn't want to have to walk home :) Well the sucky Zumba instructor was there (the one where I could do a whole class and not even sweat! I mean...if I'm going to get my butt out of bed for a 9:30 am Zumba class on a Saturday...I want to sweat lady! Quit catering to the old farts in the class and help me lose weight!) So I skipped it...did my lifting...and walked all the way back home! Now...I'm spent.
I will say though...that my left calf is KILLING me. I don't know what's up...but it just started hurting yesterday. I'm trying not to be a wuss and "play through the pain" but the pain is starting to make it hard to walk! I'm taking the day off tomorrow from running...so hopefully I will be feeling better by Monday.
So check out what I got!

Woo woo on the running to the gym! Way to go chica!! Me, I'm sitting on my couch right now thinking about how I SHOULD have ran to the gym. Darn! Congrats on the award!
Okay you are crraaaazzzyyy!! Who runs to the gym?? :) Stretch your calf, a LOT. Especially at night before you get in bed (mine seems to be really tight when I wake up if I don't stretch it before bed). And use some ice girl!
You go girl! That's awesome that you ran to the gym. Enjoy your weekend!
Good work with your run, girl! If you can access a foam roller (your gym should have one), I'd roll your calf across it (a trainer there could probably show you how to do it.) That will help release the tension and decrease the pain. It's like a massage.
Congrats on your award! Awesome job walking/running to and from the gym. What a great job!
Yay for running to the gym! I love it!
