Feel the Heel Part 2

A tad optimistic I was last week as running "freely" is still not happening.

I did a short tempo run mid-week and a longish run of 15ks yesterday and ended up with a very sore calf today, courtesy of not guarding the right foot and not using a normal gait. Running downhills is a particular challenge.

I will just have to take it easy with shorter but more frequent runs. It's happening, but it's just taking an awful long time!

Homo, all the best, I hope it heals quickly for you.

Nice pun clown, stole my thunder.

Luckily though it's not an overuse injury, and should completely go with rest.

I'd be heading for the pool and the bike. heel bruises are very slow to heal in my experience...
