Soleus TrP2

The soleus' upper point, higher in the calf than the heel-referring one, and it stays closer to home: it refers into the upper calf itself rather than down to the foot. It is worth a record because it is the everyday one — the deep calf ache of people who stand all day, who have just come back to running, or who have walked further than usual — and because finding it means knowing that the soleus has more than one point and that the famous one is not the only one.
