I think I have a stress fracture. That weird calf pain that has dogged me pretty much all year? Yeah, turns out it might not be muscle related at all.
I was talking to a friend who is a for real speedy (Boston Qualifying) runner and said something like "I think I might have shin splints but only in one leg? Does that happen?" and she (it should be mentioned she is also in nursing school. Important detail) poked and prodded my calf until she made me yell "ouch!" and pronounced that the pain was in the completely wrong place for shin splints.
So I went to see my Doctor and we talked it over and I am resting it to be on the safe side.
So I last ran four weeks ago.
Some people seem to think that running is tough. Let me tell you, not running is even tougher.
