4km easy, 4km moderate. Tried super hard to do what Duncan told me - run off my forefoot, land more underneath my body, use my arms more. I seemed to manage it ok and under scrutiny of my reflection in various shop windows I saw, mimic the mincing style of that other Scotsman - though there the similarities end. Found it quite hard to do this downhill as I pick up speed quickly. Very Little / no pain in Achilles or bum - but it's far too early to get excited. Exceptionally cold, wet and quite icy outside.
Calves still very stiff (during walking) from my raises on Friday but ok running. Did a load more when I finished.
