Hi ladies, I posted a while back about hating to run. After that, I challenged myself to run one mile and I did it. Since then I've been running 3x a week and adding .25 miles a week and I'm up to 2.5 miles, a big accomplishment for myself. I have had no pain other than some serious side cramps... until now. Last Monday I ran 2.5 and the next day, my calves and Achilles were on fire. I stretch a lot/go to yoga class after always, I never skip stretching. I gave myself an extra few days, then my dog went to the hospital (she's fine, yay!) so I didn't run any more. I need to redo 2.5 this week, so I did it today and I can already feel my Achilles and calves like crazy. Is there something I could be doing wrong? This seems so sudden.
