I land in Madrid on 1st June, been training for months , now I have developed plantar faciitis in both feet and bad hips !!! If any of you pass me staggering along please don't hesitate to prop me up before you go on your way. I'm determined not to let my feet stop me, hoping I have time to heal before I get there.
