In case anyone has weak or sore ankles....

2 Replies

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a postive outcome after buying some scholl medium ankle pro sport elsasticated suport for my torn ligament. I wasn't expecting anything after being in pain for 10 days, but have been able to walk again properly today and now really hoping to start W6R1 by the end of next week. For anyone who is on the injury couch at the moment, I'm thinking of you and feeling your frustration and for everyone else - happy running in the summer sun!

Sounds good! Never heard of those but fingers crossed for you :) I am on the IC....my hip flexor (I think) been playing up for about 3 weeks but I carried on, not good. 2 weeks nearly since a run and I'm cheesed off. Hopefully soon I'll be back out there too :)

Thank you so much for sharing!! I'm on the IC recovering from a broken ankle and I'll be heading off to the Scholl shop on Monday. It's always good to have a personal recommendation for a piece of kit. Very best of luck with w6, 'Hidden'. Make sure you post how you get on :)
