I couldn't post last night, far too angry with myself 🤬🤬🤬 stupid turn of the ankle and I was cursing. Anyway, lots of icing last night and thankfully this morning I can manage some weight bearing so see how things are in a few days....

Thanks everyone 😊 Much better today than I thought it would be.. obviously not right but hopefully nothing too serious 🤞 and mends reasonably quickly... can't cope with doing no exercise!!

Oh no! How annoying. I do hope that a couple of days ice and rest will sort it out 🙂

This will sound like a blindingly obvious thing to say... but you just dont realise how an ankle injury effects everything you do, can't even attempt yoga for a few days. Fingers crossed it heals quickly!!

Arrgghh! How annoying! Keep up the icing, resting and elevating as much as you can until the swelling is down. Hopefully there's only minor damage that will heal quickly. Don't be tempted to rush back though - however frustrating it feels, it really is just a small blip in a long journey. The runs are all there waiting for you. Take care. Speedy healing.

Thank you 😊 Thankfully not too much swelling.. 🤞 but no, won't be pushing anything too soon... currently sat with the ice pack on... still feeling grrr though!!

You need to workout that anger 😂Take a look at Caroline Jordan hurt foot videos on you tube. She has several Chair cardio routines or mat based strength routines that are totally non-weight bearing. Having spent four and a half months with a foot stress fracture, I did lots of her videos and they were really helpful. There are others, but these genuinely are suitable for a bad foot/ankle. She had her own foot injury and is therefore full of empathy. Do look her up. I did post some links on the S&F forum last year.
