There will be no sandwich for me today

The pain in my leg didn't go away over night and only got worse as the day went on. I laced up and headed out with the voice in my head telling me I wouldn't be going far. I agreed and we talked awhile, in my head, as to how far I would go just to be sure. It took all of two blocks for us to agree that was far enough. The pain wasn't unbearable but it seemed silly to continue in pain. So I limped home and searched the net for an explanation of what it might be although we both were pretty sure. Seems I have a simple case of shin splints, caused by tight calves and weak shin muscles and probably too much distance. So, ice and rest for a few days to see if it gets better. Glad I listened to that little voice, he isn't always trying to hurt me I suppose. I will return as things progress, wish me luck. Peace.
