After taking a week off to let my calf heal I tried it again today and seemed to be much better.  It was a little tinder but it didn't tighten up like before.  I am going to continue to baby for a few more days and then hopefully I can get back to normal.

I was able to get in two consective days on the calf without any problems so hope that I can continue on as normal from here.  I will try to get back up the mileage more next week.  I think my problem has been a change in shoes.  I had great success in the past with the shoes I was using but changed a couple of years ago and I have been having problems ever since.  I am going back to more traditional shoes and see how that works.
