super sore calves
I've been running 35-40K a week since I went back to full time school in Sept 2025. This week was the start of summer vacay so I decided to run more while I have time. I did a HM distance long run today and my calves feel horrible. So sore! I'm only going to be at 45K for the week so it's not a huge jump, today's run wasn't particularly fast or hilly. Also I've been running for 19 years, with the last 11 at ultra training mileage so I just do not understand why my legs are so beat up!
