Thanks Dan.

I think PF still remains abit of a mystery for me. I underwent a regime of all the usual stuff including alot of deep massage to release some of the fascia that runs down the whole of the lower limb. But I was also resting. So who knows what relieved the problem? And I feel as though I've had my share of PF but I don't know if it recurs.

I suspect that people who have a well rounded approach to fitness that allows recovery and encourages flexibilty might be better off. But, like I say, no firm conclusions.

Regarding the plan. It's all about weight and injury. Suprise suprise. I know the main problem I have (apart from 1lb burgers) is trying to change through the gears too quickly when getting fit.

So my current plan is a month of easy mileage that slowly ramps up the distance to give me a decent, low risk, base. Done on mixed terrain to allow natural changes in speed and posture.
