After my previous blog my achilles flared up and was advised by a physio not to run for at least 2 weeks,stretch,ice, blah blah.
Last week I was a bit naughty and came back running after only one week off (tut tut !!) the achilles was feeling much better. I made a plan of doing 3 x 30 minute runs (Mon,Weds,Friday) with a cycle ride as cross training, this plan went well and without any achilles issues, after every run I stretched well and also iced the area I have also placed heel raises in my running shoes which seem to have helped . Today I was so tempted to go for a run but thought better of it as I knew that it could be the run that flared up the achilles.
The plan for next week is to do 4 x 40 minute runs plus a cycle or two. So lets see what happens, tbh I can't wait to get some long runs done.
