Week 1 Run 2 :-))

[parsdeclined]

Week 1 run 2 under the belt. Felt good but left calf is feeling like a slight pull so going to have to watch that. I hope it doesn't get worse. Had a soak and put some deep heat type stuff on. Fingers crossed!

Well done. 👍✅

Do an Epsom salt soak on your rest day & put your gel on. Also have a walk. If you have a roller I found it very helpful to roll the calf. Run very very slowly🐌🐌🐌 & you will build up strength. By week 2 all twinges in my calf had disappeared. I do Dynamic warm ups before going out and gentle stretches on return. All helpful. You can also take a 2 day rest if necessary.
