I'm so gutted, I hurt my ankle 6 weeks ago and had to stop my running, cycling to work and yoga. Not been able to do anything, then kept bashing my opposite elbow and been in constant pain with both. Finally starting to turn the corner and doing static workouts at home to keep my stamina up but movement of my ankle and elbow down. I think I must have pushed myself too hard going from 20 minutes run to 25. Anyone else do this and injured themselves?
