Will have to try a roller. Not sure what's caused it. Mild strain maybe....

Yeah, I do the same.... and end up sucking wind later.
I've done some mild stretching but it stills aches....
I havent run since it happened last Thursday.

Heat suck but the humidity just kills any hope for a decent run for me.
Went out last night for an easy run just to see how the calf was. Did 2.5 miles in 23 mins. Still have a lingering pain.... not 100%. And on Sat have a 4 mile race.... Not sure if I should even bother.....

I think that how it happened in the first place. I usually dont stretch or warm up for a run or after... just start running.

Sooo i did it. It was humid as balls and the course was full of rolling hills. My calf started to ache about a mile or two in. Finished 4 miles in 35.45.

I ran 2 for 20:30 friday night. 5 weeks ago i couldnt even run 1 lap without feeling like my heart was going to explode.
My trainer gave me a new running program and i started it last night. My 880's are about 4:30, that is the baseline. I can't wait to see what we get them down to.

most important question - did you remember to stretch after the 4 miles?

that is awesome man! definitely good progress. It's a great feeling when you go from run/walk mode to full on run for a couple miles. Keep it up!
I did the longest run of my training so far on Saturday - 8 miles in around 1:16 - right hip is a little sore, but it felt good overall. got the half coming up in 7 weeks so baring any injury I should do just fine. Mid-week runs are creeping up to the 5 mile distances, and the long runs on the weekends will be building up to 11 miles between now and the race.
It's nice to be excited about running again.
are any of you guys on dailymile.com?

Getting ready for a 5k in 2 weeks so I went for a quick run last night after work. Knocked out 2.5 miles in 19.23. Was going to try for 3 even, but calf started up again so I called it.
