So I have a bum calf and this is the conversation I have with it while I run:
me: Let’s go
calf: seriously? this early in the morning?
me: suck it up
calf: yeah I’m cold
me: tough crap-I already stretched you
calf: yeah but you really think I’m strong enought to carry all that weight?
me: shut up and run
calf: still cold and now I hurt
me: dude you really do hurt
calf: told you so
me: I don’t care, I’m not stoping. Hood to Coast right?
calf: I guess I’ll hang in there
This calf has been bothering me since I started but I ignore it. I got some athletic advice from a friend and I think I need to stretch my calf once I’m warmed up, not cold at 5 a.m.. Advice welcomed!

You are so funny. Tell your calf I will lay down the law if it keeps bothering you. It must be those killer hills you have around there. Us oldies are just going to have to put up with the pain.
Who has time to stretch anyway?
Love the conversation. Tell the calf who’s boss. Harness your CES attitude.
