Woke up the day after w8r1,got to my feet ahhhhhhhh, yes think I have pulled a calf muscle. The thing is that I had no indication on the run that anything was going wrong and the injury did not present itself until 24hrs later. Not sure what I do now except wait until it goes away.

Ouch! Be sensible and don't try to run until healed. Weird that you didn't feel it until a day later,maybe it wasn't from your run but some other activity?

Yes weird, no was not doing any other activity other than my usual fantastic life, perhaps too much bubbly and chips done for me. 🤔
