On the shelf

I was really looking forward to the Chicago Half Marathon which is a great race and where there was finally great weather on Sunday.  Unfortunately, I managed to strain a calf muscle doing nothing in particular on Saturday.  Instead of running, I spent the rest of Saturday gulping generic tylenol and applying a heating pad.  Taking the rest of the week off, getting a light massage toward the week and then pick up where I left off.  Need to find another fall half in the area to fill out my race card.  Only thing currently scheduled is the Hot Chocolate 15K in early November plus maybe pacing some friends for a bit of the Chi Marathon over Columbus Day weekend.
