Confidence on its way up!

My first run today after badly breaking my leg 3 years ago, resulting in 3 operations since.

I’d lost all confidence in it holding out but it did, and I’m one happy bird 😀

Brilliant! Take it steady and you'll be fine. Maybe do some strengthening exercises too.

Good luck 👍😁

Thank you! I already do two body pump and three spin classes a week!

It feels brilliant to run again. Using the treadmill at the moment as worried about twisting my ankle on uneaven ground! Have a fear of the metal holding it together popping out.

It’ll come though!

Did the run again today and upped my speed. 😀
