The next morning, I almost screamed with that first step out of bed...and spent the entire day hobbling around the Hollywood Studios park, my calf muscle (on that one leg) was so painful.

I'd been taking an aerobics class regularly, and when it was cancelled, I switched to another class. That class was extremely different and I spent the entire class trying to keep up (apparently from my tiptoes). The following day, I could barely walk. My calves were both locked. I've never had such painful DOMS since, even with all of my marathons I've run.<br /><br />Thanks for linking up!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673587906852568968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-48853111297385236302016-02-10T13:38:03.107-06:002016-02-10T13:38:03.107-06:00Stair training on REAL stairs!
