I have been following my training plan as best as I can lately. I felt great all of last week even though my distances are starting to creep up as the weeks pass but on Sunday my right calf cramped while I was running. I am getting pretty frustrated with it and am looking on some sort of solution. This morning was my first run since I pulled it and I ran very slowly for 7 miles (I was supposed to do 8). It was tight so I stopped to stretch every 15 minutes or so and it seemed to loosen up a little but is still tight. It seems to heal pretty quickly so hopefully I will be ok for my long run on Sunday- I only got 5 miles in last Sunday (supposed to do 12) and I'm hoping to do 14 this weekend.
The swimming and cycling have been good and steady. I increased my Monday ride yesterday by an hour; I usually do a one hour ride but yesterday I did two hours. My schedule allowed me to ride in the afternoon which was nice because I would have had to get up at 4:30 (which is what I will have to do next week).
Now that March is here, it feels like the race is getting much closer but I'm still trying to be patient because there are a lot of training sessions still to come. Thanks for reading.
RIP Magic
