I have a recurring pain in my calf and foot. It started aching about two weeks ago, but I did not pay too much attention to it. Now, I limp up and down the stairs and have to stop and take breaks after short distances. What the heck it wrong?

Yeah, I can hear the hecklers now … cause you are getting old. You are so old, your social security number is 000-00-0001. You are so old, when god said let there be light you flipped the switch. I get it, but I think it is something unrelated.

What does this mean? I think I might be out of the race in September. Last night, I went to the gym and walked 5 minutes and then ran for another 10 minutes. The pain was horrible, it felt like the nerves and muscles were ripping apart. Argh!
