Any advice for calf cramps please? Of late I started to feel my calves during and after my runs and during last years Comrades I struggled with it and also this past weekends marathon. I am able to walk it off and go on, but it is on the limit the whole time then, biting the whole time. My calves are always tight and sore as well. I have never struggled with cramps before and always run the long stuff with Hammer endurolytes fizz and extreme tablets and I lean towards over hydrate, not dehydrate I did run this marathon harder than normally, so I do keep that in mind, but the weather was cold and perfect. Is there perhaps something that I might be missing to add to my diet, exercise or running nutrition? It is not a train smash, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing something small perhaps.
