Caught up with the Sprained Ankle


Thought I’d write to give you a full up date on the healing process of my sprain. There’s a part of me that wishes I had actually broken it because it probably would have healed significantly faster  had it been put in a cast. Instead, because I destroyed all of the soft tissue around my ankle bone it’s still puffy.

The sprain was so bad that my ankle turned black at the bottom of my foot and blend down to the other side of my ankle.

I literally had my first run last week and it was tough. I didn’t push myself. I barely ran a quarter of a mile but holy geez it felt so good. I’m one of those people that believes exercising can be like a drug. Once I get back on the horse, I want to keep on going.

This picture was taken awhile ago but you can see how it was during the healing process.
I can’t even tell you how great it feels to be back out and sweating my ass off every spare moment I have.
Now you’re all caught up on the ankle! This “caught up” business should be it’s own series!
