Up to this date, it's all about muscle stress and fatigues where any extra hard exertions to my right feet and calf, will further aggravate the injury and won't help it to properly heal as it should be. Nonetheless, I've been planning to do some 'yoga'ing at home (sounds funny already) just to stay active throughout this 2 weeks without running.KAMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06667359617914721909noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352312708401534819.post-21556649238858206012013-02-14T15:18:00.000+08:002013-02-14T15:18:20.927+08:00Another One?Another week of frustation as I'm forced to take a rest because my upper right foot suddenly caught with some pain and I couldn't walk properly after a 5k run last Sunday.
