Monday Dec 10 |
 | Run 10:00 [3] | |

| Foot felt good so I went out to test it so I could explain what was going on to physio. I tried to explain it but Im not really sure myself, all I know is it hurts. She couldnt find anything wrong with my archilles but found all sorts of wierd clicks and grinds through out my foot, so thinks its a build up of scar tissue from the years of spraining that ankle. doesnt explain archilles pain though...Might go see Selwyn and get his opinion on it if I can track down some money |
