I went for my long run on Saturday. I was running along just fine and was pretty sure that I would be able to finish the 5K on Thanksgiving. I was having a slight pain in my right calf, but I figured that since it wasn't too painful, I could just keep going. I was probably 1/2 from home went I experience a terrible feeling in that calf. It felt like the calf muscle pulled right off the bone. I had to walk home, and I iced my leg immediately. But, I think my plan to run on Thursday will now be cancelled. I really hate to think that I can't do it, but the pain is pretty strong still and I think I do have to not run. The worst part about this is that it is my own fault. My injury resulted from lack of discipline. It was my lack of discipline that force me to cram my training into a very short period of time. This was the real cause. Too much running following too little running. This is also the reason that I do not weigh the 140 pounds I had targeted for the class reunion. I just do not want it enough.

On the poker side though, I had another winning week, a small one, but a winning week none the less. I am 40 dollars away from a winning month. I might be able to pull it off, that is now my goal. I need two 20 weeks.
