Ten for Texas

5 weeks after running the Disneyland 1/2 marathon, I ran Ten for Texas with a knot in my right calf muscle.  I would have it diagnosed as a trigger point the week following the race.  I put on Sore No More and compression socks to help support the calf during the ten mile run. My mileage in the 5 weeks leading up to the event was really low; I was resting my legs thinking that with rest my calf would heal itself.

My average pace per mile for the 10 miles dropped off after mile 7:

1  8:01
2  8:01
3  7:54
4  7:47
5  7:41
6  7:52
7  7:44
8  8:29
9  8:30
10 8:31

I used average pace as the actual mile markers were way off for the race.
