Today was extremely frustrating. I ran the parkway loop and we only had 70 minutes sue to tomorrow's race. We ran for a while, but the group stopped to use the restroom. I saw the level 3s in by as the rest of the group was stopped and because i didn't need to use the bathroom I decided to go with them. I ran after them not realizing they were in the middle of a tempo. I figured I could stick with Colton because I thought he was racing the next day. It turned out I was wrong. I stuck with them up until we hit the hill in green springs. When everyone else began doing the hills I realized Colton was running a different workout and flipped going back to the school. I was stuck at a stoplight for a while till the other 2s who had stopped caught up. We ran together till we came around by sand stone. As I ran down the road my leg which had been tense for the past few weeks kept increasingly hurting till it came to a point where the side of my calf was bulging in a funny way like it was enflamed. At that point I stopped. It took me another 5 minutes to make it back to school. I was barely moving and very frustrated. I talked to coach and he said to rest.
