Achilles update

So today was my first day on a new gig. I started working downtown, which meant a great deal of walking just to get to the building. I did ok - I walked slow everywhere I could. They were really reasonable about letting me put my foot up in the air and rest it on the chairs in the room. At one point in the day, my leg actually got numb. I had to get up and walk it off. I was pretty sore by 200 pm, but held out until 500 pm. By the time I got home, I was done. I iced it down three times in two hours. Whew. Thank goodness for ice packs.
