Achilles Heal!!!!

Yes I have the spelling I wanted. For the last few weeks since the Wuthering i have had a strain to my Achilles Tendon and so have had to pull out of doing the Calderdale Hike, which, from the Vasque report sounded VERY nice. I have been doing all the right things I feel Ice,Rest,and sports Physio. As yet there has been little improvement. I have another appoinment next week and will make a final decsion on doing the Fellsman then. I like all runners do not handle inactivity well and so I have been trying to do all those small jobs that never get done, done. I will be very careful with this injury because my drive is to do my best for the Lakeland 100. So I now have the tidiest training kit drawer, the cleanest and tweaked equipment, and the most organised magazine,book,folder collection in the history of mankind. SOOOOO, Please Heel Heal.
