    - BRANCHES
      - muscular branches
      - cutaneous branches
      - articular branches

    - passes deep to tendinous arch of soleus
    - runs downwards and medially to reach
      - posteromedial side of ankle
        
        midway between medial malleolus and medial tubercle of calcaneum
