No, what's done for Dan's achilles is Dan, and an over-ambitious project to change my running style... to prevent injury. That's not just ironic, that's like being hit over the head with an ironic bar (while taking irony supplements). However, at the time I was in the process of giving up my tarmac addiction, and it was going well. I do think I'll be able return to the fields in some capacity, don't worry. My idea of offroad is a lot different from RA's though.
