Perfect conditions to graduate today and was really looking forward to it but about 15 mins in, going uphill, my left lower calf and Achilles heel area felt like a massive cramp and I couldn’t run any more....
I’m soooo disappointed and fed up - the last run...😭😫
Walked the rest with my daughter and it eased a bit but feels like it’s bruised and sore.
Have stretched and am about to ice it.
Any tips or similar stories? 😶

Ouch! A strain or small tear? We obviously can't give medical advice but ice and rest will certainly help. Its really frustrating for this to happen to you on what should have been your graduation run.🙁 Rest up and see how it feels in a few days but don't be tempted to run through pain with something like this as you could end up making it worse. Fingers crossed for you - a bump in the road and too often part of the journey (I have had more than my fair share!) but here's hoping you are able to get back out there soon.👍🙂
