Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

FML - thoroughly recommend acupuncture if you can find someone to do it, a needle in my piriformis cured instantly the ITB I'd struggled with for 3 years!

bunting alpenrose PB :) bunting

I'm hoping it's not the start of Achilles tendinitis. Both calves were so tight when I set off this morning that it was really painful to run on - so much so that I thought I would have to pull out. Told myself that if I got to 5 miles and it was still as painful then I'd quit.
As it happened, the calves were easing off by 5 miles and by 6 the calf pain had all but gone. The Achilles only really hurts when I press one certain spot at the back, it's OK running on.

Thanks for all the bunting folks and the medal over there >>> PP, although our reward today was a Christmas pudding. Nice to finish the year as I started with a 10k PB. :)

There's been some great running on here today, I think the weather may have had something to do with it.

Carp, that sounds a bit pants, I should get yourself booked in for a good sports massage asap before it gets any worse.

Agree with AR carp, don't take any risks with your achilles, I was out for minths with mine, catch it before it gets worse.

I third that Carp and get the foam roller on the calves. Had to look up itb FML - tennis ball appears to be more favoured for that. (())

I fourth that. Achilles issues aren't good. Rest it too.

Hope your ITB settles FML. Good time to rest.

About This Thread

Maintained by iRan
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2016 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

bunting and 700er medals are often spotted around here.

Happy running :-)
