      Way to push through...Have you changed shoes recently? I am experiencing some of the exact same- started with shin and moving to calf. I am hoping it is just transition to new shoes??

      Good call again, Troy. I'm also on the same boat as you but in regards to my left calf so I didn't run since last Sunday. Tomorrow I might try running again, we'll see. At least you're biking and that's a good workout. :o)
