Went for a light 10 minute jog last night. Funnily, the right ankle was fine, it was the left insole that was hurting my foot! It may have been placed incorrectly, but it felt very hard on the arch.
Anyway, my technique felt terrible and my calves are nowhere near ready yet; all in all, I felt like a 60 year old woman who had just taken up jogging... but it's a start. The best thing for me though is that there is very little to no stiffness in it today.
So, I'm going to get out for 10 minutes every other morning starting on Monday for a 10 minute jog, concentrating on forefoot strikes, thus bringing my calf into it and developing that a little more. Hopefully I'll be ready for some decent distances within the month.
