Return from the IC

After a nasty cut that gave me an infection in my Achilles I have been on the IC and to be fair the Idle C since May. Picked up the C25 at week 5 this morning and imagine my delight that - with the help of one of Jancanrun’s brilliant playlists that I managed - hope all on here are well and enjoying their running this weekend - not ready for Parkrun yet but I’ll be back! Yes the Achilles is a bit twingy so I’ll be careful - lots of Pilates for me!

Hi Mandi! Great to hear from you, it’s been a while! 👋👋

I can imagine your joy at getting back out running gently again. Good place to start too. 👍 Well done - at least you know you’re able to start working towards PR. Won’t that be fun, bet you can’t wait! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Ouch that sounds painful, bet it feels so good to be back out there! It's trying to get that balance between looking after the injury and trying to keep fitness levels up, best of luck!
