Broke my ankle in February this year. Cast removed 6th April. Steady progress up to now. Walked 12 miles so decided to do C25k. First run this morning, ankle seems fine. See how it goes.

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.
The guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
To reduce the impact on your ankle, and the rest of your legs, slow down, avoid heelstrike, keep footfall under your body not out in front, run on grass or treadmill, wear proper running shoes fitted after a gait analysis.
Enjoy your journey.
