A Further Month On

I have not risked running yet but a degree of optimism is creeping in that I may be able to start soon.
My wife and I have just spent 2 weeks in Florida with lots of swimming in the villa pool and a lot of walking and standing (in queues for rides). I have not noticed my achilles most of the time other than some stiffness just after getting out of bed in the morning.
Some time ago, we signed up for a 13 mile night walk in Manchester City centre for Cancer Research and that is next weekend. We have just returned from an 11.4 km (7 ml) road walk and though I felt some tendon discomfort early on, this walk went well.
I have been hopeless wrt my osteopath's recommended exercises whilst on holiday, I'll try to include them in prep' for next weekend. I'm seeing him again on Thursday this week so it will be interesting to hear his views on healing progress.
I'll let you know how the walk and the osteo' goes next week.
