"How's your training going?" Mine was going on fine until I decided to go out for a run and was limping towards my sneakers. Ankle fail! Icing now.

    Haven't had one of those since my basketball days. I am not sure what is the root cause which sucks. Bummer on your calf. Guess it will be an iced out night at our homes. Happy recovery. Pain/injury don't keep us down.

    Nice miles on the bike. But Spring is here so manage injuries to fully take advantage of this great weather coming our way.

    Oh no!!! Definitely ice that ankle...maybe do some ankle strength exercises? I use a balance board or a theraband to strengthen the ankles...

    Try one of those one size neoprene ankle braces…I had some issues right before the Philly Marathon and freaked out, but was able to run with the brace. I thought it would really get in the way, but the only thing it did was take the pain away.

    @Michelle, thanks for asking. It's feeling way better than yesterday. Had it in a brace all day. I was able to climb up and down 4 flight of stairs at home (no elevator) and 5 flights at work (also no elevator). So looking great so far. Might test it out on a run tomorrow. How's your calf?
