I continue to take it a bit easier with my running at the moment, though I haven’t seen any noticeable improvement in the niggles in my feet. I always seem to have some sort of niggle at this time of year, often lasting till the New Year. Hopefully it won’t take that long this time.

Eight years ago I had commenced my South American leg from Valparaiso in Chile and was two days into it. Below is a video I took at the very start, along with some photos. Two days later I was right up in the high Andes. More on that in the next blog post.
