Bike ride up Millcreek Canyon. The weather is so nice my toes got cold on the way down.

Possibly one of the worst ideas I have had in awhile.  Attempted running up Mt. Wire pretty fast but half way up I strained my right lower calf.  Probably a result of not wanting to strain my left achilles :) Hobbled the rest of the way up and now I have my leg in an ice bucket at work. Hope it heels before Saturday.

I HATE missing races especially when it's a race that has been on my schedule all year. Stupidly I strained my calf running Mt. Wire last Tuesday so I wasn't able to run the Steeplechase today, one of my all time favorite races. I didn't decide not to run it until noon yesterday. If I ran it I am sure I would have forced myself to finish and in doing so I likely wouldn't have finished well and I would have further injured my calf. Common sense? Maybe but I am still not fully convinced I made the right decision.
