How do any of you guys cope with injury?

Ran Dublin half marathon a couple of weeks ago (PB 1 hour 36 mins!) and have aggravated my achilles tendon. Haven't run for 2 weeks almost and another to go, going stir crazy!!

I use ice on my achilles if they're playing up, load of it in cold water in a bucket and sit with me feet in for ten minutes. Also occasionally have a cold water bath plus do regular stretching, have a foam roller for my Calf and Soleus muscles, sit and roll my legs on it to help stretch them out.

Can get them fro Amazon.

Oh, great time by the way, wish i could get down to that, 1:45 is my half marathon PB.

Salford 10k looks good, should be a fast course. PB hopefully.
