Got a sore outer calf - that long muscle that goes on the outside of the lower leg and feels stiffer than the calf muscle if I tense my lower leg (yes, that's doctor speak) - but it doesn't hurt too much. It's fine to run on, but I'm aware of it when I don't. Is this a niggle I should nip in the bud? Time for some foam rolling? Physio? Or just let it be as it might be the increased running I did over christmas and new years?
Edit: just got in from another long walk, sore ankle too now, or just above the ankle, on the same outside. No running to work for me this week.
