Since you had a hard run two days ago and then didn't run for two days, all the junk was still sitting in your legs and it took longer than usual to clear it out.
Not at it at all.
Pretty soon you'll be like the rest of us crazies who love half-marathons because they are so much easier than 5Ks . And who run 5K to warmup to run a 5K

It happens and sometime for to reason that you cant figure out. Ths past Sat I went for a 4 mile run and my calves were killing me most of the run. I even stopped and walked at least 2 time and and a 3rd time I stopped for probably 10 minutes just to let them recover.......they were tight and hurt like heck........ Sunday, I went for my 6 mile run a they were fine....... It just happed from time to time and you don't always know why....and the opposite can happend...I have had days where I didnt feel all that great and to for a run anyway and end up having a really good run.... My advice is don't try to figure it out.....just deal with it and come back again tomorrow.
