Yahoo!! Completed final run - not quite how I'd planned as previous run I managed to pick up a calf strain 10 minutes in. I slowed down and completed 30 mins and had couple of days rest. Thought this morning leg was ok and got further before I felt strain pulling. Never mind I finished the 30 minutes - although not quite the distance I was aiming for. Will now rest up properly and then get back to see if I can build up to complete 5K rather than 4K I'm currently doing. Would never have managed this if it hadn't been for this app - THANK YOU!!

Wow well done!

A hand held roller might help to massage your sprain.

Someone else mentioned that so will definitely give it a go. Now that I'm into a running regime I really don't want to get out of the habit so will try anything. Thanks

Congratulations! Well done ! You’ve graduated!!

I too had calf strain and was directed to calf stretch exercises pinned on the site ... has worked wonders and I could highly recommend them.
