Marathon + 7

Today I headed up for my first serious (?) run since the finish of the Disney Marathon.
I had run on Thursday, for a few miles, and felt alright, but certainly not back to normal.
Then I woke up Friday, feeling great and refreshed, only to be met with a strong upper left lateral calf pain, that made me turn around after a mile.
Saturday, a solid trainer ride on the bike.
Today, I went out, feeling A LOT better. Ran 10 miles at about an 8:30 pace. Only a few twitches here and there.
A few hours after stopping, I started to feel the calf, going up and down stairs. So I decided to ice it.
No real worries with this little hot spot, a few days on the elliptical, maybe the bike. Continuing with the ice.
I have a whole three months until Boston, which makes me giddy.
