Achilles tendon??

Hi I finished w7 r1 yesterday (yay me) and still going strong but I have had a pain just below my ankle bone (and back a bit) since. I horse ride too so it could be related to that but I don't think so as I have ridden for years but this is the first bit of running I have done. Has anyone else had this and any suggestions to prevent it? I did break my ankle years ago (fell off a horse and got dragged doh!) could that have anything to do with it? Thanks for any advise :D
