I'm a bit naffed. I can't run today. My foot and leg/hip are quite sore after Friday's encounter with a bouncy dog. My ankle is swollen too. Also I had a trip to London yesterday which wore me out. It's a long way from South Wales by coach! Will rest and see if I can start again on Wednesday. Good luck to all my fellow runners, your stories will keep me motivated.

That's just too bad, it sounds as though you need to rest some more and maybe elevate your ankle if it's swollen? Always tricky to fit in around work and home chores, I know, but any time will help. Hope you're back to full fitness soon 🙂

Thank you Oldfloss. Swelling has gone down a bit now and no pain. Will take things easy tomorrow too.
