Charley Horse...how to prevent??

Beth Wise — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 22:02:08 GMT

Okay - I've suffered with a Charley Horse in my calf the last 3 night...it's the most intense pain that I have ever felt! I've been traveling a bit, but what the heck?? Anyone know what causes these nasty little things or how to treat them? I've heard I need to hydrate more or take in more potassium, but what else? YIKES! I hope I don't get one during a long run!!

San Antonio Rock'n'Roll Marathon training partner

Hello All,

I am an active duty Air Force member here at Ranolph Air Force base and I am tackling my first marathon this Nov. in the Rock'n'Roll. I wouldn't mind having a training partner for those long runs on the weekends. Maybe even run together on race day.
