I started my running/walking routine 3 weeks ago. I signed up to my first 5k in December and I'm comitted to do it. Im on week 3 where I run 1/2 the track and walk 1/2 the track. I do that for 2 miles. This is my 1st week doing so. I took a rest day yesterday and did about 30 min of Yoga. Today I went out to do my run/walk about a hour earlier than I normally do and before I ate lunch ( I usually eat first) I made it One mile today and my right side calf was KILLING ME!!! I didn't feel that I stretched a muslse and who knows if I did. Im 155 and about 5"6 so Im not that overweight but my goal is to loose about 20 lbs... I don't know if I over did it or what happend, we were a bit cooler today I don't know if that had anything to do with it. I came home and iced it and its much better now but a tad sore. Any advice out there for a newbie?</p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:85c693e5-fd7a-40dc-96d9-a7307d54d0d2] --> Thu, 20 Sep 2012 02:04:37 GMT guest http://community.active.com/message/1268419?tstart=0#1268419 2012-09-20T02:04:37Z 8 months, 6 days ago 4 0
