Just finished run and found it really tough i think I pulled my calf muscle on the 3rd stage of run which is an old injury i can't seem to get rid off but i carried on as I'm determined to finish the course, the pleasing thing is that I run a further distance today even though I thought I was going slower and I'm not trying to beat my previous runs so I'm looking forward to R3 on Friday sore calf or not
