Marathon in 4 day and issues with achilles, should I run it?
I've been having issues with my achilles for about 2 months now but it's slowly starting to get stronger and heal after seeing a physio. I haven't been running more than 6km~ during this time so training has been written off completely. I am not fussed about a time or anything like that but I would like to run it.
Recently my running has been virtually pain free but there has been very low volume. I was debating trying to run for 9 mins (slow pace) walk 1 min, repeat. My worry is just injuring myself further. Is this realistically achievable or should I just swallow my pride and support the others running instead?
