Morning! Oh gosh poor you, reading your article I was sure you were going to say you had shin splints. Fifty and your only getting a verucca now? Painful yes, but you chose the right option. Mine was in my twenties along with other odd things like impetigo caught from the local swimming pool.

During lockdowns I walked a lot in Cornwall Park and acquired ring worm on my ankle. The doctor said it was probably due to the cows and long grass, right luckily just a cream for that. Another oddity ticked off the list.

Good luck with the running!

Hey Paul :) ringworm on your ankle? Pesky cows! Impetigo is called school sores in NZ - that confused me a lot about 2 years ago when I got them on my leg. Now that was painful. This varruca got more sore as it registered the frostbite yesterday evening. It's settled down a little this morning. We'll see how it responds. In the meantime, a bunch of blood results came through this morning meaning a few tweaks here and there. Ageing, huh?
