Back on the quest to 10k (2nd time)

Did the 3.5k of week 3 today. I've been taking it cautiously, did 2.5k last Sunday. 2 weeks ago I was skiing and had a heavy fall onto one leg midweek. I could ski the rest of the week but walking was painful - especially stairs, had to go up and down 2 feet to a step like a 2 year old 😄

The odd thing was that no bruising came out - unusual for me. Anyway, back on track now and I remembered today during and after my run, just how good it makes me feel. I seriously believe that I am a nicer person when I'm running regularly! 😄

Oh no! I’m skiing at the moment. Hopefully no falls during the week. I plan to restart to quest to 10k when I get back. Gentle reintroduction.

Hope you are fully recovered and back on track.

So sorry about your accident but glad you are getting better.

As for your last comment - I am with you there! I haven't been running much lately due to a bad knee and I have been utterly unbearable (even to myself!).
