Easy Run. 2.7 miles. Achilles tendonitis was acting up. Can't shake it. It gets worse the longer I run. Stopping to walk helps.

Actions I'm taking:
-Strassburg sock to sleep in
-Heat before run
-Ice after run
-Eccentric calf raises/dips
-Cushion-y shoes are supposed to help.

On the off chance someone actually reads my post on FRB, do you have any other ideas about how to heal this sucker up?

Easy run. 1.1 miles. 10:00. NO PAIN in my achilles!

So frustrated with everything in life today so I had to get out for at least a tiny run. Didn't want to go too far though, so I stopped before I tweaked something.

Easy run. 4 miles in 40 mins. A bit of stretching at halfway point. No pain again! Feeling good!
