Two Random Toughts

- I read ‘A Perfect day for Bananafish’ by J.D. Sallinger on the eliptical machine today (sorry - no random rants about strange people at the Muni stop today)… That story was REALLY weird… It was good… I think… SUPER fast read and ended in a really shocking way in the last 2 sentences… Now I need to re-read it to figure out what happened!
- Ever get a charlie horse in your calf when you sleep? On random rare occasions I wake up to find my left calf muscle has totally balled up to the size of a hockey puck and hurts like a mother. Have to relax and just rub the muscle to get it to stop… What causes that? its too weird… Maybe it had to do with me dreaming about an empty passenger jet crashing… who knows…
(Yes - I’m kind of a freak - haven’t you figured that out yet? :):))

Happy Thursday! :):)

Assuming it wasn’t a rhetorical question… I am a regular - maybe compulsive - middle distance (6-8 miles) runner, I go out roughly three times a week, and in the warmer months, I sweat profusely to the point that you could scrape crystals of salt from my jawline during my warm-down. It is after days like that when I get otherwise inexplicable calf cramps while doing nothing strenous. The problem dissipates if I ensure that I get extra salt in my diet, to combat the excessive losses, so it could be a similar situation that is affecting you.
