This was the place, scanned in from my copious photos of the trip. One of my favourite bits of the 3 week trip, coast to coast and back again.
About 5 years ago, I decided I would start to finally make my own to recreate the Niagara House experience on Sunday mornings and it wasn't long before the Internet gave up a recipe which was damn good. I've been making them the same way ever since and demand always outstrips supply.
To work off the calories involved, from Monday (in anticipation!) I added another minute to each of my 3 sections to see what would happen. Thankfully, nothing has broken, but I can feel the additional strain in the ankle. I don't think it's going to tear again, I just think this is the residual tendon-scar tissue having a rough time in there. I don't have any problems with walking, stairs and all the old problems, it's just like one of the annoying rattles in the door of your car.
A couple of weeks ago, I asked my GP for a referral for physiotherapy again, this time on the NHS. I had a call about it last week asking how long ago the injury was sustained. As I have a record (here) that wasn't too difficult. However, no appointment yet. Hopefully, I'll get an idea about that this coming week.
I've was pretty lucky with the weather over the last week and always found the parts of the day where the rain had just stopped, or would start half an hour after I got back in. And for February, it's still really warm at 6C in the mornings. As I write it's 10C. I know it's going to be one of those record-breakingly warm winters, when the statisticians get to talk about it in a couple of months.
Results for the week.
Mon 2.69 miles, 27 minutes, 9:1 run:walk 10:03 pace. 6C
Wed 2.75 miles, 27 minutes, 9:1 run:walk 9:50 pace. 6C
Fri 2.77 miles, 27 minutes, 9:1 run:walk 9:45 pace. 6C
Hope all is well with you.
Mr Stumble.

Looks like you're getting some good running in. Best of luck with NHS.
