Beating My Brain - 151.6

Yesterday evening Mr Achilles was whining a little. I also noticed that the top of my calf was sore when I touched it in exactly the same spot I had a cramp way back in October. The knot after the cramp did not want to go away for a week. I am wondering what is happening with that leg. I can see how muscle problems can make the tendons work harder and vice versa.

This morning pain in the top of the right calf as if after a cramp. No running today?

 The story of Morning Battles

I beat my brain and I won today!
Getting up today was a battle of the wills, me against the alarm clock. It rang and I shut it up. It ran again and I shut it up again. It was temporary though. Turning it off completely would require for me to wake up and I did not want to do that. By the fourth, or was it fifth try I gave up, I opened my eyes, turned the damn thing off but I also knew that performing this task woke my up for sure.

Then there was another battle, this one with my brain who insisted that I could do my strength training tomorrow, or do something at home instead. My brain is good at such things and it is very persuasive. I almost gave in but somehow while still arguing I managed to get dressed and get into the car. There was peace and quiet on the way to the gym but as soon as I turned the radio off, the fight reignited again. According to my brain it was better to start the engine and go back home than to walk into the gym. I did not listen though and went...

I am quite proud of my strength training. I am pushing heavy weights. I the table above two may workouts are missing but they don't really add that much to the picture. Today I did two or three sets of some machines. Anyway, I am quite happy with these results. Hey, gotta brag about something if I cannot brag about running.
