FLOW CHART FOR RUNNING-RELATED PAINTemperature: 33°
My soleus muscle in my right shin continues to hurt. What should I do?
Q: Has the pain increased in intensity since you first noticed it?
--- If "N" = Keep running.
--- If "Y" = Go to:
Q: Can you still run on it?
--- If "Y" = Keep running.
--- If "N" = Keep running.
Climate: cool and clear with (mostly) dry pavement
Distance: 4 miles
Arthur: Three pints? At lunchtime?
Ford: Muscle relaxant. You'll need it.
That was splendid. But with bright sunshine and no breeze, and only a few degrees warmer than yesterday, I was quite overdressed. No matter. Outstanding weather, outstanding view, inspiring playlist. And though my right shin was tight and unhappy for about 100 yards, it was springy and pain-free for the rest of the run and even now.
But only just now. I can feel the tightness creeping in.
David H., this is a very large beer. "Hi."

"Nothing but Flowers" is on my running playlist, too.
It should be on everyone's playlist!
Strange ... I know all of these songs come from my record collection, and I know how "Genius" works, and yet every single one of these songs was blared at some point from the speakers of my stereo when I was going to school here. None of them have yet post-dated 1990.
Well, okay. "Shiny Happy People." But that was released before I left in March 1991.
