I mean, in the grand scheme of things, this ins't bad for an "injured" week:
That's all weight lifting (in black, totalling 14.5 hours which is NICE) and some easy to easy/moderate trainer rides (in green).
After 8 consecutive weeks of 1500+ "intensity minutes" (under the red line) I only had 1082 minutes last week (the red arrow):

And that number was only as high as it was because I got in some good, hard lifts.
I think it's actually a PR for weekly strength time! I just barely broke 14 hours just over a year ago, and I had 14 hrs 24 mins this past week! Nice!And look at how my HRV numbers TANKED when I wasn't doing any hard training:

Nightly numbers are the dotted line, and it pulled me into "unbalanced"
last Wednesday (after skipping 2 runs and 2 hard bike workouts).
My "endurance score" had been on the upswing since early February (after taking a hit in Jan because of a week-long trip), but now it leveled out:
I've been having weekly step counts around 150,000 since last summer (I think I only was below 125,000 for 2 weeks last year), but last week was 110,000. Even if I had my 3 normal runs, that only would have put it around 138,000, so it would have still been on the smaller side (showing that I didn't get up / out and move as much because my calf was sore). This shows in one of the apps I use to earn rewards for walking... Here's what March looked like:

All the GREEN is for days I hit the goal they had set for me.
And here's what the injured week in April looked like:

The only goal met was the run that injured me on the first.
I've been wearing the "night splint" boot for the last 12 nights, and I think I'm on the upswing. I'll test my leg a little more and report back on Thursday, before some "Friday Funnies" on Friday.
p.s. If you want to start earning rewards for walking (and it logs a lot of "steps" if you have your phone in your pocket while biking too), download WeWard and use code JUSTFISH6195 so we both earn a bonus. That's where the 2 calendars came from above.
