Managed to get back to running on Monday this week with W2R1 after about 3weeks off with a hurt ankle. Just completed W2R2 today and it felt good. Still a little bit of pain when running but it’s not causing me to limp after like before. When not running only have an odd bit of pain when walking down stairs. I have been running this week with an ankle support on, think it’s just a case of building strength up now. This week I have made a conscious effort to slow down. I walk quite fast normally so my brisk walk can be fast. I think that first week I may have over done it starting to fast.

Great you're back running . Just keep a close eye on your ankle any real pain, stop. Good luck 😊

Good to see you back. As a fast brisk walker you may find little if any pace difference between that and conversational paced running. Enjoy run 3.
