Well here I am at the beginning of week 9.
I have woken this morning with more pain in both my ankles....I was going to go to the gym but figure I'll probably be better off resting. I should learn to listen to my body a bit more. I think I've probably been "over training"....ie, doing too much high intensity stuff and too much weight bearing activity with having to walk the dog every day too.
It's just so frustrating..the motivation is there but I'm restricted by pain. I just don't understand why I've had no problems up until a week ago, then bang, all of a sudden on Sunday night I could hardly walk!! My common sense is telling me I MUST rest and I know that that is the advice I'd give anyone else in my position. But my heart is trying to pretend that there is nothing wrong...ie, ignore it and it will go away. Ultimately I'll probably lose more training time if I persist at the moment. So rest it is.
One day at a time...Iwill be patient.
