W9 R2 first unfinished run

[Mazz11]

In the the last minute of W9R1 I got a pain in my right calf so gave myself an extra couple of days before r2 but about 2 mins in to running the pain was back so I stopped and walked home. Any suggestions of how long I should wait before trying again? 🙁

Oh no, how frustrating. Well done for stopping though - that was the right thing to do. How long is a really hard question to answer. Does it hurt at any other time? Have you tried gentle regular calf stretches to ease any tightness? Or perhaps some foam rolling to loosen everything up. Make sure your legs are well warmed up before starting your next run too. I would maybe rest it for a week now before trying again, but as this time, stop if it is still painful. Good luck.
