Why does my left calf ache when I run?

1 Reply

I do the recommended warm up walk so surely this shouldnt happen. However I add that it wears off towards the middle of my run like it did last night during run 3 of week 6. I am looking forward to trying a long run outside on saturday for run 1 of week 7
