So.... My last post was 6 months ago, I was straight out of surgery to remove the metalwork in my ankle.
Recovery was OK but I was told to take it easy, go back to physio and hopefully I would be in a position to start training in May. The physio discharged me at the end of April and said she had done everything she could for me but she felt that I would never manage to run for any extended period and certainly not 5k, as now when attempting to run I have a limp due to restrictive movement in my ankle. I left the hospital feeling absolutely gutted.
For those of you that have read my previous posts you will know how stubborn I am, my Dr laughed at me when I said I wanted to try C25K it took me 6 months of persistence to complete it the first time round but I did it against all odds and I went back to the Dr and told her that I had completed it and lost 10kg and not needed my asthma reliever since week 3. I know I have to be sensible to avoid further injury or putting too much pressure on my knees but I AM DOING THIS.
I started really gently on the treadmill (I only run on my treadmill due to issues with self confidence amongst other things) I managed to complete all 3 runs on week 1 and week 2 and tomorrow I will be attempting the first run of week 3.
My ankle feels a bit weird running but I'm doing all the stretching exercises and managing to run with reasonable dignity.
Back to it
Beginning to be back...
I'm back on the program
It's good to be back! 
Getting back to running
