(injured) (sick) (rest day)
Feeling just plain crappy - up half the night coughing. Consequently stayed at home (rhetorical Q: if a CMO doesn't control infectious disease spread- who does?) and no workout today.
Oh the good news is walking normally without a calf sock- not quite ready to run/jog yet.

Thanks to Alex's prompt here are some deliberations on cause and effect.
Common factors/triggers for right sided recurrent calf injury (same spot as in March):
1. Preceding mental/physical fatigue (last week was work-related)
2. Speed with change in direction (once on track, once while Oing)
3. Possible biomechanical imbalance
Action: need orthopedic/podiatric assessment of leg/foot/gait
NB retirement and giving up on speed are currently not attractive options :-)

While not on the same scale or impact as Ian S's injury, am utilizing his approach of equanimity, patience and persistence as a role model.
