Welcome To Fetcheveryone

Trying out the right calf. Still very tentative, but held out. Slight ache or twinge near end? Lovely day - sun shining while in gym, so straight out for run when I got back. Sensible, slow, and only slight increase on 4.5 from before. Hope it keeps improving. Maybe calf raises helping? Maybe the calf guard? 20C out and bit of sun, nice. Nettles in the longer stuff and cows in one field, so a bit of adventure! G

Gym on a Sunday. No cars cos family just arrived. Good to get down to gym! Foam roller, stretches (not calf), sit ups, plank, side planks, squats, calf raises, wobble board side raises, curls and presses, machine pull down and the bench press bar (2 x 10 kg on bar is very light compared to other folk, but 3 x 15 still tricky by end?) G

Gym after work. Usual foam roller, stretches not calf, sit ups, plank, side planks, wobble board side raises, presses, squats and calf raises, machine curls, push down and bench press. G

Got out after work. Wanted to do the standard work day distance. Felt OK. Very slow being careful but also very lethargic. Tried a very small number of half hearted strides. Actually felt nice to be moving a bit more quickly. Anyway, slight ache or tenderness in right calf after. But bit of cold gel and will gym next day and hopefully all fine. G

Fri post work gym. Always good to get in. Just the usual. Foam roller and stretches. Really can't tell if calf is getting any better, still tender, at the top behind the knee of right calf. Wobble board curls, presses and side raises, sit ups, plank, side planks, squats, calf raises, machine chess press and pull down. G

Very slow and sore running at the mo. Even a short one feels hard. Better than nothing though. Calf held out but still feel it is vulnerable. Wearing the Skins calf guard, no idea if it helps. All day on feet after at rc car racing, but tried to sit down a few times at least. G

Cars were fun. 5th in 2WD, 5th in B 4WD. Burgers in sun, Alan MacI doing a great job of social. K n J came to watch and J drove, sort of! G

A plod on the old stomping ground. Very slow, felt hard but at least right calf held out. Nice to go after work. G

Gym after long day at work. Still worth doing! Foam roller, stretches, calf raises, sit ups, plank, side planks, wobble board side raises, curls and presses, machine press and pull down. One of the gym instructors said, gosh, you're in here a lot. Instructor! G

Hiya Corrah! I used to run in that park at Sighthill from work quite a bit. It was lovely last night after work, with kids playing, football and rugby training going on, dog walkers, lovely evening 22C or more. Anyway, after work run, which is nice. Did 1 mile of this barefoot (the up and down bit) which felt good. I am so slow and tired though, even going slowly. I hope the strength, fitness and a bit of pace will come back. I know it will. G

Sunday gym, with my sis as a guest (but v expensive for her, as her pump class was only 45 mins). I did my usual gym, with some chat breaks cos Alan D was there! Foam roller, stretches, sit ups, plank, side planks, calf raises, wobble board curls, presses and side raises, machine pull down and chest press. Then 3 hours grass cutting, not wearing my calf guard and right calf was very tight and tender. Grrr. G

Usual gym - foam roller, stretches, sit ups, plank, side planks, wobble board side raises, curls, presses, machine chest press and pull down. No calf raises as did two in row and bit tight. Hope to run Tues. Add 10 mins - forgot to start watch. G

Crikey, that was a shock to the system! Agreed to run with work colleagues, said I needed to go slowly and would drop off if needed. Started at 9s or 8:30 somethings, but flip was 7:30s pretty quickly! Anyhoo, survived. Calf not too bad after. Got a cold now (not Covid, got a PCR test and negative!) so no gym on Wed. Volunteering at Meedies parkrun Sat hopefully. G

Not a parkrun! Marshalled at Lochore after a FB appeal. Thought my sis might run it and I look after niece. But they didn't come...so just me marshaling. Then a wee run after. Was lovely. Started foggy and cloudy, but cleared to sun and beautiful clue skies and water. Calf felt OK. G
