My husband and I started this programme together. On our W3R1 on Monday, at the end of the run he had a cramp in his calf, he cooled down and stretched out but it left him with a dull ache. We went out this morning and did W3R2 and he warmed up properly and stretched his calf before but on the last run he got cramp again but since going to work the ache has changed to a pain and he is limping 😔. Please advice us what he should do please. Thank you

He should see a GP or physio.
