@whatjamietweets Had this only recently…. Physio suggested stretching out the calves and soleus every day (same as calf stretch but with bent knee), plus when you get back to running, use some heel raisers in your shoes to take the pressure off the Achilles. They are cheap on Amazon - £3 each!
Woke up this morning with the intention of doing a quick run but feel tried as hell!! Legs feel hot and still recovering from the weekends efforts so I think stretching is the way to go. Fingers crossed I can fit a run in at lunchtime today 🤞#ukrunchat#runchat#ultratraining
@LauraStallard04@UKRunChat I’ve tried lots of different apps: Strava route planning, kahoot, google, OS Maps, but the best is Footpath. I bought this a couple of years ago and I’ve made hundreds of new trail routes. I’d recommend trying it, and if you do buy it use the Thunderforest and OS overlays
15 miles on the road today with @kerryw83. The sun was out and it was nice to run in shorts and t-shirt, but it was pretty windy so went through a lot of water! Looking forward to getting on the trails tomorrow #ukrunchat#runchat#running#ultratraining
Needed to think through a few things with work, so what better way to do it than to get out whilst it’s still light. Of course the stress tends to mean it’s a little quicker than usual, but it still help! 💪 #ukrunchat#runchat#destress#running
Last night my wife and I continued our tradition of going out for a nice meal the night before her chemotherapy treatment. Food was amazing! Only 2 more rounds of treatment to go for her now. #foodporn#cancersucks
Good run this morning… steady 10k with a few undulating hills. Can feel that the HR is slowly starting to get better. Plus seems as though the mornings are getting a bit warmer so will help with the motivation!!! #ukrunchat#runchat#ultratraining
Tough 10k today. Pushed the HR as I’m trying to rebuild some fitness which is tough considering I ran a marathon last year faster than this!!! Hopefully doing something quicker once a week will help! #ukrunchat#runchat#hardrun#anearobic
