Calves spasming after sprinting

Any of you get spasming or sore calves after sprinting? I find they spasm and it feels so good for my Mrs to massage them after including the shins. Even the day or two after, I need to stretch them. Are DOMS a sign of a good leg workout?

Personally I'd want to have my pulses checked to make sure this is not intermittent claudication, aka hardening of the arteries.
 
Did you spend enough time warming up beforehand, really important before exercise, and of course doing a cool down afterwards?
