So woke up this morning and could barely stand on my right leg. Took me an hour to have a shower and breakfast then another hour to walk on crutches to the doctors, what would normally be a 15 min walk.

CT scan and ultrasound completed, now it's the waiting game… Well 2 days max.

A little bit annoyed and frustrated as I had finally found my groove in training but now I have to really focus on my eating.

But staying positive through it all, it's not going to stop anything, merely a bump in the road.

 

So, I woke up this morning feeling really great. Then I stood on my right ankle and felt like I was going to collapse. The swelling had remained from Saturday and the pain was unbearable.

Walking to the doctor’s in pain, I wanted to chop my foot off and run free even if it’s on a stump.

Doctor told me that there’s nothing to worry about. I had taken the right steps in elevating and icing but I had not put any compression. I had not broken the ankle but more than likely had a slight tear of ligaments. The ligaments are bleeding out which is causing irritation and hence the pain.

Great news. I have gone home and now resting up. But whilst I’m resting up, I have to make sure I’m eating right.
