Comments: My calves have improved slightly, but simple tasks like walking and fully extending my legs are still a pain in the ass. I have never experienced soreness like this before, but the worst of it is over, which was yesterday. Today I just tried to get some blood circulating and work out some of the tightness; I can still feel swelling all the way up to the back of my knees so biking was interesting. Keep taking warm baths and advil and it should be cleared up soon.

On a positive note, my toe feels incredible. I feel like I could run on it. Goal is to get in another overhead squat lift, bike, and some other metcon in before I leave town saturday for the beach.
