For Corrosive, because I know he likes them so much! :) Spider Pictures...BEWARE!!!
MarkJFine, looks like some people get more cautious with age, while others get totally reckless.... LOL. It all goes in the memoirs anyway! :)
Did you get plantar fasciits? And how did you mess up your Achilles tendon? (that's so painful)
ETA: "the exact day before Santi Cazorla did his." Cazorla=copycat
I have a regular stretching routine, which is really meant for hamstrings and calves. One day I lifted my leg onto the porch railing to do a hammy stretch and banged my heel real hard. Didn't realise what I did until a steep downhill at the beginning of mile 6. Aggravated the achilles, right there.
I think the mechanics of dealing with the achilles on one side made me run a certain way, causing a pronation I never had on the other side. I guess it's plantar because the heel gets inflamed, but it seems to move around a bit.
The depressing thing is that these are considered "old man" injuries.
