I did a half-marathon a couple of presidential administrations ago, so surely it would be fine? It was! Until the next morning, when I rolled out of bed, put my feet on the floor and felt a sharp pain in my heel.Plantar fasciitis, my old nemesis.Strengthen the muscles of the feet. Silverman suggests doing toe curls (with your feet flat on a towel, grip the towel with your toes and scrunch it towards your body) or marble pickups (using your toes to pick up marbles or similar objects from the floor).Stretching. Specifically, stretching the calf muscles and the achilles tendon. Regularly stretching and massaging these areas “can help to not only assuage the inflammation, but prevent it from coming back”, says Aiyer.Increase activity levels gradually.

20 h. ago ‘Eternally spellbinding’: the TV shows that baffle you – but you can’t get enough of

Crimefighting nuns, giant killer white balloons and Aubrey Plaza getting stuck in a wall here are your favourite ever mind-bending TV seriesCatterick is my favourite baffling TV show.

The extremely loose plot centres around the criminal antics of mummy’s boy Tony (Shearsmith) but there are more tangents than a geometry conference. From ripped up posters of George Clooney and haunting dance routines to Chris Rea and Foreigner, Catterick should be top of your TV destinations. Tom Whelan, South Shields Continue reading...
