Achilles tendonitis playing up badly!

Today has not been a good day!

Started off with real bad pain in my achilles tendons again this morning… and unfortunately the pain hasn’t subsided all day.

It may be down to several things really…

• I stretched my calves/achilles tendons too much yesterday
• I did too many eccentric exercises yesterday
• I wore my ASICS trainers yesterday – still not sure if these were the route cause of my stress fracture
• I ran (yes, ran) for about 15 yards yesterday
• My new custom fitted orthotics are finally starting to ‘argue’ with my body and my achilles tendons are starting to complain about it!

Whatever the reason, I’m not happy. I just want to get training again. Even though it’s about freezing outside I really want to get out and exercise. For some reason I’m sure I’m noticing a lot more people out running at the moment! It really does rub it in.
