I'm really new to running. I gave up smoking on the 1st and wanted to channel all those withdrawal symtoms into getting fit. I've been following the "Couch to 5k" program and after only a week, ive found my feet, especially just beneath the ankle bone and around the achilles tendon are really painful after a run, especially the following morning. Im so disappointed as i feel so determined to persevere, however, I dont want to do more damage. Can anybody advise me what I can do to relieve the pain, yet still continue with my running plan?
