calves cramping during Bricks

[Iris616]

My left calf seems to have developed a permanent cramp.

After some research I determined that when I do a traditional calf stretch, I was only stretching the gastrocnemius, not the soleus. I found a stretch for the soleus and my calf no longer wakes me up in the middle of the night.

So are you stretching before you start your bricks?

I stretch briefly before I start the run, but it is minimal. Thanks for the tip. I'll do a google for soleus stretches
