Fall Running Thread

[rocknrollgirl]

So I am off from school this week. I did a short run yesterday morning on the rail trail. My second favorite place to run if I cannot be in the woods. I kept it short and easy because we are signed up to race on Sunday, a 10k trail race with lots and lots of punchy, rooty climbs. My right calf is barking at me, so I ran a little and stop to stretch and ran a bit more and stretched. It was tough to baby it because I felt good otherwise and just wanted to go, go, go. Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise holding me back a bit for Sunday. I really hope it settles down before the race. I hate racing with a niggle.
