TheEd,
Ankle is steadily recovering. Managed two short waddles last week - took it very easy as were working away. Have put on a bit of weight, am now about 84/85 Kg's, were 81/82 at the start of summer!
Anyway, have been doing a reasonable amount of re-hab on the ankle. Hit the gym on Sunday with some rowing and a little weighting training with some core thrown in so keeping my hand in.
Went swimming this evening, could believe how much I couldn't use my legs due to the ankle still being a little sore! Had a busy weekend so going to see how feel before trying a short waddle tomorrow at work during lunch. Might rest and get out on Wed and do some core afterwards.
On the whole doing well, work has been a bit up in the air with some problems with my senior manager. Has subsided somewhat so now treading carefully with everything. Want to try and rally my training efforts before the year is out.
Hoping to get my running back up to speed for that fast 10km in November, however will have to limit and manage my expectations based on recent events - ho hum, onwards and upwards!
Catchup soon with more progress. Any tips or guidelines I should test my ankle with to benchmark progress?
