I woke up last night with my left calf hurting. Somehow, I must have pulled a muscle yesterday. I iced it and took Tylenol today, but it was really sore. I went to the park this afternoon to attempt a run. After about 50 feet, I thoughts of my streak ending. However, as I continued to run, the pain was tolerable (more so going down hills). I stayed on the roads and ran a gimpy slow 3.1 miles.
