Today’s Juneathon was pilates again. I get a late start every now and then on a Wednesday, so I got up today at normal time intending to run but my left achilles tendon was killing me. I’ve got a massive mozzy bite on it from Mondays field run – it’s gone hard and is oozing stuff, the skin around it about the size of a tennis ball is all red too… I always react badly to bites! It’s just making it a bit painful so I thought I’d rest it again today, as I’ve got another club run tomorrow and 6 miles planned Saturday that I want to be fit for.
Boring post today as I’m doing it from my I-phone. Hope you’re all doing better than me today!

Ooh, sounds painful, hope it heals soon. Well done on still doing your Pilates 🙂
Mmmmm…. foot sounds lovely! Are you sure a 6 mile weekend run is a good idea and is not, in fact, just very very silly?
Hm you make a fine point…
Ouch! Sounds painful. Hope it improves soon.
Hiya I don’t know if you have tried it but I’m a firm believer in Piriton/Piriteze tablets for bites. I don’t think they are actually for this purpose but a pharmacist once recommended them to me and they definitely make them less itchy and make them heal quicker (or the placebo effect makes me think so). Nasty buggers, I’m sure we didn’t have mozzies in the UK when I was younger
Thanks! Shaz recommended the same so have popped one and it is decidedly less itchy!
Ouch-sounds bad. Hope it heals soon and doesn’t give you too much more bother!
That bite sounds nasty – I hope the piriton works. It usually helps for me. Fingers crossed for tomorrow 🙂
Hope its all better for tomorrow XX
lol… I’ve just deleted my comment as I was about to say try piriteze… although why I deleted it, I have no idea because I’ve said it anyway!!! But I see it’s already been recommended… which is why I deleted it! Oh, shut up Maggie… I’m too tired to be doing this!!!… hope it’s better soon!!!! 🙂 x
