W5 R2 ✅ .. excited for run 3 :)

However both my ankles are swollen, one more than the other. Plan to RICE the life out of them and hope they are better for Sunday for my next run.

My boyfriend suggested it’s how I’m running but I really think the ground it a bit slanted where I run (it’s really hilly round here). I’m gonna go to a park that I know is flat on Sunday and see if that changes things.

I have had a gait done and I am in the supination category, and I’m running in Brooks Ghost 13.

Hope everyone is good ❤️

Great attitude.

Try following the advice in the guide to the plan on minimising impact.

Take care.

Hi, well done with week 5 run 2 👍

Sorry your ankles are swollen, keep up with the RICE, and hopefully they will be good by Sunday 🤞

If could be a number of things that has caused them to swell but at least now you've had a gait analysis and some good shoes !

I'm sure you will enjoy run 3 !

And you will be smiling all day long after you have done it 😬
