That's what my physio told me today. Probably from the change in training to doing more climbing.
His instructions were to cut volume and elevation for a week or so and then start building slowly. Also to do isometric calf holds. I found some good resources online for progressing these. This page, for instance And this podcast is really good on tendon injuries in general.
So I can still run.
I'll keep to the flat for a while, but I may take some time off. I really don't want to make this any worse. Although apparently I should do what I can to make sure the area doesn't get weaker.
My physio and the Internet tell me pain should be my guide: do what doesn't hurt too much or makes it worse within 24 hours. Then build from there.
I'll swim and cycle, too.
Just when I thought I was feeling good...
