If Mike is going to take a few days rest, then maybe I have
the leeway to take a few days off from running. To compensate for my
problematic left calf, I altered my running form so I wasn’t pushing off my
left leg as hard which resulted in slight strain of my shin. Running through
the pain is not working so much.
I used to be a member of Planet Fitness, the ultimate no
frills gym that was pretty much made for me. It’s cheap ($10-15 month), and has
mostly endurance machines like treadmills, ellipticals and lifecycles.
Unless my leg make a remarkable recovery
in the next 10 hours, I am going to rejoin and hit the lifecycle tomorrow which
should do the trick.
Of course what will then happen is I will get all excited by
the variety of doing multiple activities and will consider signing up for a
half ironman. I just need to think about an open water swim in cold water and
that will cure me of it. Plus being a white male in the Bay Area and the tech
industry who does triathlons makes me quite possibly the most annoying
stereotype imaginable.
