This Ultra is going to be 62 miles of fun fun fun. Achilles have really flared up in the last week, Thursday I was down to a slow limp so not good.
Been icing like mad and they have improved in the last couple of days, so I've got my fingers crossed but as it's on Saturday I don't think it's going to be much fun and might end up being a very long walk.
Anyone got any experience of Kino tape ? It's something I've never thought could work but I was given some yesterday and they taped up my achilles. It might just be the placebo effect of having something hugging your achilles, or just good timing as they were getting better anyway, or just my desperation for something to work :D but! And I hate to admit it, it does seem to be doing something :)
