It’s important your day to day shoes are also comfortable and not hindering your running experience, high heels for instance can create a shorter calf muscle, which in turn will create problems when running as you won’t have as much dorsiflexion movement at your foot, this can lead to calf pain whilst running.
Training shoes are the most important part of your training, you should speak with a specialist and determine what you’re running in isn’t creating a bad running gait or putting pressure on your body which can be avoided. For stretching and rolling to be effective you should do this outside your training as well as warming up and cooling down properly with each run you do.ĭuring your run you may feel like your calves are cramping or getting very stiff, this can be due to your body not being prepared for the amount of load and stress you are putting it through, sometimes we over do the run or step up the distances or speeds very quickly, commonly going from 5 to 10 kilometer runs within a few sessions as previous runs felt ‘easy’, this is an easy way to injury, we should always build strength and stability into our legs and accumulate distance safely to help get the body used to impact and prevent stress related injuries such as shin splints or tendonitis. The easiest way for this to be resolved is to stretch or foam roll, this allows the tissues to have better movement and can also increase your speed without changing the way you run. Especially those that haven’t really trained a lot throughout their life or have taken a long break from exercise. Some people are just naturally less flexible than others. But what causes it when there has been no previous injury and how can we prevent this pain? For others, the tension affects them when running and can be so severe that the aching pain causes them to stop. It can be linked to a number of problems which can affect those new to the sport:įor some people, the calf muscles simply feel a bit tight the day after a long or hard run. Tight calf muscles tends to be most common amongst relatively new runners.
