Injury update

Hi Everyone!

Hope you are all well & thanks yet again for checking in with my progress & sending me some lovely messages of support, it really really helps so much :)

So, whats new in injury corner..... Well its not all doom & gloom, so appologies for feeling so sorry for myself in my last post!

I have been resting for a whole week now & as much as that is utterly frustrating, especially when all your running friends are out there putting in great mileage, I am hoping I have done myself some good for not doing anything! The last few days I have been pain free...yipeeee!!!

I went back to see my lovely physio Lisa yesterday, its a shame that wasn't pain free but its well worth it! She has allowed me to basically go back to doing anything as long as it doesn't hurt!! So today I will go back to the gym & do some cycling as this is non impact. In a few days when my leg will have calmed down after its physio attack I am going to attempt my first run. It will only be a small short run & it will be on a running track so it is a soft surface but even the thought of being able to do that is REALLY exciting :0) :o) :o) So I am feeling so much more confident.

It would be SO much easier with an injury if you can say, I did a certain thing to make it happen so I know not to do it again. But there are so many factors that its hard to find out how it happened. All I know is I DO NOT want to suffer pain like I did when having the tear/muscle damage massaged out! Yikes!

So I have been putting my resting time to good use......sitting on the sofa watching deal or not deal......NO!!!! ;o) I have been making numerous phone calls & writing numerous letters to arrange some fundraising events to get me to my £10,000 target!!

So, next Tuesday I am hosting a curry night in a local indian restaurant, yummy!!! & am trying to arrange another quiz night as that was such a success last year!

More news.....today I have also received my running number for the Hastings Half marathon 1873. I just now need to work on getting myself fit & back to getting the miles in! AND I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
