Calf troubles ongoing

The calf was feeling better this morning and didn’t cause me any grief during the WOD but I attempted a run this afternoon and had to turn around after just 5 minutes because it had started to get bothersome again.

So… either I’ve got one super duper tight calf muscle or possibly a mild case of Achilles tendinitis. Either way I’ll hit it with the RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) treatment.

I recommend http://www.thesock.com/ called it my triathlete lingerie

But seriously it saved my calfs when they were extreamly tight and no amount of ART could get them to release

That’s funny… I’ve been looking into compression socks and actually have a pair of CEP running O2 socks on the way : )
