Had terrible feeling the last few days. Maybe I can’t run the 10K race next Sunday at all
I’ve had some kind of odd feeling around the right achilles tendon since uphills in Bologna. On friday, as I was planning to do some intervals, the tendon signaled suddenly an acute pain after just 500m of running. I walked back and had sat and sun off.
Now on Monday I didn’t know what to do. For some reason I decided to do an easy one. First hundreds of meters ok… let’s do the standard 6K. And it was ok. Speeds normal. Did some ice afterwards… Was that it? Well, if I want to do the race, I need to check the speed. So at night went out to home 1K. Again, like a step in the dark I started the first speedy one. 2K in 6.25. Not bad, and the tendon felt “ok”. 1 min break, 6.36, 2 mins, 6.35. Maybe I am just lucky and the achilles thing wasn’t that bad after all?
