I thought I'd test my sore lower legs this morning with an easy trail run. Since I do not want to get the Porsche Design Endurance Boost running shoes dirty, I left them at home and ran in my Adidas trail running shoes. I was wearing Adidas head to toe. Adidas is a corporate partner of Porsche, you know!
The trail starts just down the street from where I live, circles a large pond and heads out into the forest. It's a beautiful little dirt path.
The first 3 or so miles felt good. Then a right lower leg muscle started to ache. Same muscle acting up during Saturday's run. I slowed up a bit and tried stretching, but that didn't help much. I've had a problem with this before. It's the soleus muscle. I need to re-strengthen it. Extra stretching, hot tub and a massage will help too.
I was hoping running on a soft dirt trail would help, but looks like I'll need to rest it a little. Good thing for me biking doesn't work that muscle much. So I'll ride the Bike S tomorrow morning.
Follow my continuing passion to explore new adventures on Porsche bicycles. I have conquered a Century ride with a Porsche mountain bike, the Death Ride on a Porsche touring bike, the 184.5-mile Chesapeake & Ohio Canal Towpath in 2020, the 370-mile combined C&O/GAP trail in 2021 and the 237-mile Florida Coast to Coast ride in 2022. And just completed the Maryland and California Coast & Coast Porsche road bike adventure!
