For some strange reason, I'm having Achilles pain after doing only 10-12 MPW of running. I didn't run on hills or on banked surfaces.

Any ideas on what's going on, and how to fix it? Is it safe to continue running if I don't bump up the mileage?

(and no, I'm not a new runner. I used to run 10-12 miles a day, but I've cut back due to school and work commitments.)

re: what????

Your achilles pain is coming from sitting on your a55 all day. Actually it may be tight psoas muscles from all that sitting and then going running. Try this stretch a few times a day at the bottom of the page.
