Last week I took an injury in my calf that just won’t seem to let me go. The pain seems to be on the outside of my calf, but midway down between my knee and my ankle. I say “seems” because it’s actually hard to pinpoint (sometimes it feels like the ankle). It’s not tender to the touch, and stretches don't hurt a bit. I just have a hard time walking and running is almost agony. It's worst when I push off on my toes. I’ve got 15 weeks until my first marathon and I’d hate to lose any more training time. I’ve already taken a week off. Does anyone have any ideas on what this could be? Remedies? Also, how detrimental to my training is taking another “injury week” going to be?
