Granted not many of us are doctors (myself included) but personal experience advice welcome: I did SOMETHING to my left ankle 2 weeks ago on the treadmill and I am so bummed. It stopped swelling after a day and I’ve been RICE-ing, I worked from home last week so that I could rest (otherwise I walk about 4 miles a day on my commute). I can walk on it but I limp. I tried running on it once it started to feel a little better which was obviously a huge mistake but I did make it all 8 miles.
So 2 questions:
1. How do I not go crazy being stuck
immobile and unable to train? (I was doing SO well on my plan running 5 days a week and getting faster!) I know I can do light exercise like the bike but mentally I am so down in the dumps.
2. Is there any hope for a quick recovery so that I can get back at it???
Appreciate anyone who’s taken the time to read/respond with encouragement (or even tough love) you guys are great.
