WTF. Went to bed feeling fine. Woke up with shin splints in my right leg and a left calf strain. Also have some minor PF under my right foot and a wicked mosquito bite on my left calf.

Good news is none of this seems like it is going to be more than annoying. But it's weird because I haven't been doing anything remotely hard as of late.

Don't worry about it buddy. These kind of crazy last minute injuries have a way of popping up before races. Its most likely just nerves. It happens to me as well. The last week before my last marathon, all of a sudden I had some hip pain that was never a problem and I was like what is this crap?! Then it went away the next day like it never happened. I think there's even a name for this phenomenon, they are called "Taper Pains". You can even search for it.
