Golf with Andy. Matchplay lost with a disaster on the 18th.
Achilles much better first thing but gradually getting more sore playing golf.

C • Eccentrics 2

Golf. Rabbits Greensomes. Won 3 and 2 :-)
Achilles less sore than this morning. Could be due to the stretching and icing I did between rounds. Whatever, good news that it's settling down quickly between flare ups. Let's see if the Physio agrees tomorrow...

Achilles sore as expected this morning but no worse than last night.
I will avoid exercise for the rest of the week and hope it settles down. CompassSport Cup on Saturday not looking good. Not sure how golf will affect it.

Golf. Pro's mid week comp. 31 Stableford points (18/13).
Hobbling with sore Achilles :-(

Bamford sheepdog trials Fell Race.
Not my thing. Fast start along old railway line (7 min miles for 1.5 miles ) then vertical climb up Winn Hill. Very difficult to pass on the climb but still managed to overtake many walking. Lost most of these places on the fast descent. 8 mins down on Neil Northrop.
Worst thing is that my left Achilles was getting very sore towards the end. Had to slow to a cruise to try and protect it. 10 mins icing it in river afterwards.
