Week 4, Enventually...

After making it successfully through the first 3 weeks, on the day I was due to start week 4, I woke up with an inflamed tendon in my ankle. Not, as far as I know, in a way running related; I went to bed fine and woke up injured.

The result being that week 4 was postponed for 2 weeks.

On the plus side, was able to resume where I left off and despite a watch malfunction meaning I ended up doing more running than I should have this morning, week 4 is now done and dusted. Perhaps even more impressive is that Mrs sTrongFuse is still matching me step for step and is even dragging us out in all weather just to keep to the schedule. She still claims she's never going to be a runner, but I think she may be in denial...

That sounds so positive! Really hoping it stays settled. If you get a flare, just remember that you know what to do to settle it down and you’re coming back from a stronger position than before. Fingers crossed it’ll behave!

Really great news about MrsSF joining in too. Running is infectious!
