Still slowly ramping back up. The good news is I'm not in pain the next day. The bad news is every run seems like a chore. I hate the new shoes. So much so, I bought the pair that was my second choice at the running store to see if they were any better.

Got in 4 today!!!! Has been difficult lately to get in those miles. A lot to do this time if year but when I do run in the morning I seem so much more efficient the rest of the day. Maybe that is telling me something!! Lol
Happy running!!!!

Gabbo, Good luck finding the right shoes. That can be a challenge. (Maybe Santa will bring you the perfect pair). Ha0

I feel for you on the perfect shoe search. I rotate 5 different pair of running shoes. 1 pair I actually hate and can't wait till I have enough miles in them to justify retiring them. The other 4 pairs I like certain things in each shoe. If I could deconstruct each one & put the parts back together into 1 Frankenstein's monster running shoe. I'd have exactly what I want. Don't think that's gonna happen.Still slowly ramping back up. The good news is I'm not in pain the next day. The bad news is every run seems like a chore. I hate the new shoes. So much so, I bought the pair that was my second choice at the running store to see if they were any better.

I rotate 11 pairs... some I love and can't retire even after 800+ miles... but all of them are great shoes. ... keep searching. .. it's easier to find a shoe that won't hurt you than a woman who wont...lol0 -

9/12 - 5.02km
20/12 - 4.27km
Leg finally felt good enough to run! Only a short one, don't want go out too hard and bugger it up completely! And oh the humidity! It was so muggy
My calf started to make it presence felt towards the end of the run.....not pain, more a gentle pulling in the muscle......so will slowly build back up to the time/distance I was doing over a couple of weeks I think.
It was good to get back out there!!

Good luck with the shoe quest! I don't have room to rotate 11 pairs like Lonewolf but I do have 3 right now that I rotate and will add in a 4th pair in January. I also have several that I no longer run in but use for walking around or running on the beach if I don't go barefoot.Still slowly ramping back up. The good news is I'm not in pain the next day. The bad news is every run seems like a chore. I hate the new shoes. So much so, I bought the pair that was my second choice at the running store to see if they were any better.0
