Running is not an easy sport or past time. Today's run was spent nursing a tight left calf, that felt like it would explode on me at any moment. Fortunately I managed to nurse it home and, in return, it got me home.
It has once again brought home to me the fact that it is important to do the little things, the things that I find mundane, to ensure that I can continue to put one foot in front of the other in rapid succession. I have started to stretch a little more after my runs and a little during my runs. I find if I'm standing still I will catch myself doing calf raises to strengthen, what is slowly becoming a weakness. Its the little things that make the biggest difference , because when you combine a lot of little things you get one big thing... the ability to perform.
