Dental problem delayed my runs this week

[Headspace1st]

I should have been out running this morning but yesterday I had to get a large heavily filled tooth extracted and was advised to avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours. I’m hoping I might get back at it tomorrow as I’m feeling a lot better as today has gone on. I managed a reasonable walk today without overdoing it so think I’ll be ok tomorrow.

Ah I hear you! I’m having a tooth out at the beginning of next month. Can’t wait 🤣. I hope you enjoy your Christmas run tomorrow 🎄🦌🎁🌟.

I had been having nerve pain for two weeks so definitely couldn’t wait until the new year. I went out this morning and ran 25 minutes and walked 15, it was just a bit too much for me to run the 5K but was glad I got that far. Wasn’t sure how my mouth would be with the air getting at it and heavy breathing but it was fine. All the best with your tooth over Christmas I hope it doesn’t hurt too much and you can enjoy the festive period. Happy Christmas 🎄

Ah thank you, I’ve just finished a course of antibiotics for an infection in the root, so it feels ok at the mo! We shall see. Happy running and enjoy Christmas 🤶.
