Chris,

It does suck... I am really feeling it this Summer, since I am doing longer runs than previous Summers and am more conscious of my pace now that I am into doing races.

I did a 7.1 mile run this evening. Still having calf pain. It was hot-n-humid, but actually I think a cold front may have miraculously passed this afternoon and made it a little more tolerable. My ave. pace was a little under 7:40. That's what I was running for 15 mile runs a few weeks ago! LOL.

The good news is, once Fall arrives... running seems much easier and my paces always improve dramatically.

I may have to take 4 or 5 days off from running to get rid of this calf injury. I thought it had cleared up, but last night I somehow re-tweaked it while lifting weights.
