Nah. Was just a tiny tear. Blew up like a fucking Balloon though.
Not more than a week or so before it happened. I was talking to a guy of similar age to me, who used to do the sort of volume of running and riding I used to do. Except he now has a titanium achilles (I avioded telling him Ti was a middle age material, and that he should have gone for carbon). So it spooked me somewhat. Cant really run anymore. Which has made me loads faster on the bike. So swings and roundabouts.
I just glance at pedal Balance occasionally. Its not the most useless of metrics. ThoseI get from my running. 'ground contact time', stuff like that.
