FINALLY got to wear the new shoes today. they are a tad big but made a world of difference. NO MORE SHIN SPLINTS!!! w00! however my right calf is acting like a straight asshole! it tightens up so badly that i have to stop running for fear of tearing it. that is a stretching issue. obviously. im not stretching good enough for le monsieur calf. but i knew the shoes would rock. asics gel stratus 2.1. get ya some. however, i have to take em back today and switch em for a smaller sizer. i really hope that i don’t have too much trouble trying to switch em out. the receipt DOES state that merchandise should be returned new and unused. but come on! how am i supposed to know if the shoes truly work for me until i try em out?! sigh. so i cleaned em (they really weren’t even that dirty) and im going to take em back after work. please pray for me people that the salespeople don’t flip out. by the by has anybody shopped at the sports authority? if so can ya let me know how they act when you return stuff.
i am going to repeat week 2. i really did not want to repeat at all, but i was not able to continuously run all of the intervals for this week. so to properly condition my body, i shall repeat. even though i wasn’t able to complete most of the 90 second running intervals (due to right calf acting up not being winded. which surprised the heck out of me!!!) i still don’t feel bad, because i completed the entire workout! yay me!
so i am uber happy right now. i pushed myself to my limit (which is super tight calf muscle btw)!
so teh interwebz i am imploring you for help! if you have any tips for my calf, stretching exercises or any other workout advice you want to shoot my way, feel free!
tis enough for me have to get ready for work.
love
