Had to come into work today so I decided before I sat down to plug away at this stupid project that has eaten up most of my life over the past 8 months (15 days until go-live...15 days...just gotta make 15 days!!) that I would do the 5 mile loop by my office - the one that I screwed up my calf on a few weeks ago.
This time - no pain in the calf at all!!! YES!!!!! I'm HEALED!!! I'm so excited!!!
I managed to pull in a sub-9 min/mile performance - still waaaaaaaaay off my old pace, but given that I've been limping around in pain at about a 11min/mile pace for the past few weeks (and not really running much at all for the past 23 months since I tore the hamstring), I'm pretty satisfied.
