Back again?

Went on a run/walk this afternoon, for the first time since last June. I had been dealing with some achilles & turf toe issues (both on the same foot!), and after 'resting' them for what seemed like forever, I finally got more aggressive about treating both a month or so ago. Gua sha, voodoo flossing, lots of stretching and manipulation, basically, which seems to have helped a hell of a lot more than 'rest' did. I started walking after lunch the last two weeks, prepping myself to move for half an hour after the long down time. And yesterday did a couple pick up running bits to se how it felt. Felt fine, so this afternoon I geared up and did 30 minutes of 2 minutes running, 4 minutes walking, with a 5 minute warm up and cool down walk at either end. And so far the foot is tolerating it just fine. Thank heavens.
