Following the ankle issue on the Christmas Day ParkRun I took a week to let it settle, the week was hell I hate not being able to run!
I jumped on the treadmill so I was running in a controlled environment and set off for a slow 20 minute run, with the 5 minute walk either side obviously.
It was great being back running, it wasn't outside but it was great all the same, towards the end of the run I was getting a little achy but no pain. I'll have a protein shake to help with the muscle repair and have another 20 minute jog either Friday or Saturday, if the weather is OK I may even venture out down to the canal tow path as it's not as lumpy and broken up as the ParkRun course.
2020 will, hopefully be a year of 10k's and a sub 40 minutes 5k, I just need to sort this ankle out fully now.
Happy running everyone and a happy and prosperous New Year!
