The summer has arrived on the Azores, and being able to run again is nothing short of amazing. It was so amazing that I forgot all about doing shorter runs, that likely had been far better for my calfs. A good thing, though, is that I have felt no pain at all. The bad thing is that I normally do not feel any pain before a sudden stabbing pain announces its arrival. The pain either comes during the run, or a few days later.

What is new is that I am taking daily magnesium shots, as well as I have got myself a massage gun. If I feel any pain from using the massage gun on my calfs, I will not run. So, it is my calfs that decide when my next run will be, not my head. That is a good thing.
