..suck it up princess
..yep time for me to stop wallowing and get back on with the job of recovery....
i have NOT been in the best of moods of late i have to say. been cranky about the i njury, been struggling BIG time on the crutches. it is VERY exhausting going up and down a bzillion stairs every day. I now have organised that my rooms are on the same floor as me
-anyway i had to have a whole week off training as per instructions and started back yesterday
30min water run on friday
50mins water run today and then on crutches when walking around highpoint-sore hands and arms but oH WELL
as the heading says -suck it up princess!
so i am BACK on the start of recovery. its going to take around 20 weeks proabably, 12 of the no running, then the slow walk/jog back over multiple weeks
so whilst still a bit down spirit wise, i am restarting

Yeah, you just gotta try and approach rehab with the same discipline as normal training, hard I know but wallowing gets even more boring.
This isn't a case of "it could always be worse", but I checked in with my Canadian friends blog the other day to see how she went in her debut marathon and found this - http://trainharder.com/blogs/divamar/
Keep hanging in there
Just read the post from Marilyn that Em linked to!
Anyway, take care with it. Enjoy the smell of chlorine for the next however many weeks ;) You'll be back better than ever for the start of the 2011/12 season.
Hi there! Thanks for your comment on my blog! I am so sorry to hear about your injury. Very frustrating but don't quit! Use this time of rehab (once you are able to weight-bear of course)to see if you can fix any mechanical/running form issues that may have contributed to the fracture. I plan on seeing a good physio to look at any imbalances while off. It will give you a positive focus!
I really wish you a fast recovery!!
