To compete with boots only zipped up half way up my calf?
I seem to have eaten too many pies over christmas

It deepends whether they fall off half way round or not.
You have several options
a - Catch the vomiting bug
b - Eat little to nothing until the competition
c - Spend at least 2 hours before needing to wear them in a rubber suit in a sauna
d - Combination of b & c
e - Get some black electrical tape and neatly tape round - no one will notice!

Oh dear!
Yeah, acceptable at this time of year - try to wear some thin (you don't want any extra width!) black knee-highs so it's less obvious and if anyone mentions it say: "Oh they're always falling down, I'm sick of pulling them up again!"

lol. I dont really fancy any of those.
I was determined to start running again this week but I did my back in on sunday
I might have to go with the black tape

OK so now I need some black knee high socks that are thin at the top and thick at the bottom otherwise they rub my as someone said today, cankles
I can fasten the stud at the top so that will have to do. I could probably force them up but I dont want the zip to break and my feet also appreciate a blood supply

A few years ago I had a wide left calf thanks to a pony "laying" on it - I could get the zip up with difficulty but to this day it slips down
It was summer so on hot days I had to try to elevate it before classes and often leapt off immediately afterwards to release my poor leg - unless I had another class in which case it had to remain encased otherwise I'd never get it back in!
That was showing though so zips down = totally unacceptable!

I bet that was agony on your poor foot. Me and Gin are too scruffy to show
I didnt realise legs could get so fat in 3 months
Everyone at work was more shocked that I spent over £300 on a pair of boots

No, the tingling wasn't pleasant! You sure it's not more/different muscle, maybe if you're doing different exercise with your new job...
