I think I hurt myself. I'm pretty sure I irritated or strained my right calf muscle. I tried running yesterday afternoon and was just able to make 1.8 miles. I probably actually completed 3 miles, but I was only able to jog 1.8 miles of it and the rest of the time I was walking and stretching. I am hoping that the chiropractor can help me out with this problem. I went to see him for the first time on Monday. He believes that I close off my lungs which (obviously) makes running harder. So my goal is to open up my upper body and to stop using my inhaler for exercising. Lofty goal but I think I can do it. Also, I'm having doubts about running. I don't know if it's the calf problem, but it's hard. I knew it would be hard, but sometimes I think running 4.2 miles is a crazy goal that I'll never accomplish. Hopefully I'm wrong.
