7 miles Baltic recovery

Monday is slog day. Physically tired after a big week and mentally tired after a day at work. I just shuffle home at whatever pace my legs have to give. Today I averaged 8:40 pace. Fine.

Have felt a spot of plantar fasciitis returning over the last few days so made sure I did some fully-loaded calf raises at lunch. You are supposed to do these to failure but with my chunky calves I can't find a weight big enough to fail on! I just hold a 24 Kg kettle bell and do two sets of 15 reps on each leg. When the PF was really bad a few years ago I used to get one of my children to climb on my shoulders and do them on the stairs at home. Worked a treat!
