Four weeks since my last run (sounds like the confessional box) who would of though a calf pull could be so debilitating. In spain this week and the rest from work and sea/pool swimming has helped immensely heres hoping I can start trotting gently around the old grave yard again to get back into it πŸ–πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΈπŸ˜€

Bless me, Amanda, for I am in a similar boat.

As they might say.

Frustrating eh?

Here's to trotting about again soon for both of us, hon xx

I was catching up on your posts sounds like its been a slow road for you as well. Im apprehensive about trying again as it happened despite stretching. Apparently its a common i jury in the older runner... great... the joys of ageing .. pass me the sangria its my only hope πŸ₯€πŸΈπŸ·πŸ₯ƒ

You'll be fine. I've not run for 8 days due to the heat, so I need to get on with it!

Hardly. I’m just plodding on with it. A bit faster and/or further each time. Keeping to the diet and seeing the weight drop is clearly helping.
