Ouch, i got cramp yesterday on my first attempt home from work. It started at around 9 miles but managed the remaining 3. I was hoping it would have disappeared by now, but it's still aching today.

Do you have any tips to prevent or remove cramp?

Sympathies. I hate getting cramp. I got it after about 93miles, wanted to do extra to get the 100mile but decided to go home.
Drink more water, keep nutrients high. I've read its due to a lack of water and also salt. So you need to keep your nutrients and fluid levels up.
Also, apparently stretching is good and should also help to prevent cramp.
