More bad news!!
Disaster with the training!!!
On Thursday, during training, my right ankle started to give me problems. It's an old injury, done whilst climbing a mountain (large hill) in Fiji over 10 years ago - something I'd all but forgotten (the injury, not the trip to Fiji!!). Since Thursday, I've been resting the leg and on Saturday it felt OK so I went into town to do some shopping. I think what did it was crouching down in Boots to look at the makeup at the bottom of the display, and I felt it go again.
Today it feels OK (ish) I've got a bandage on it and managed a small bank holiday walk with Pat & the dogs It was the slowest walk we've ever done because Maureen is also lame.
But I suspect it's scuppered my chances of running the 5km. What a nightmare, hey? The dilemma I've got is that I can leave it a week or so and start training again and hope it doesn't go again - with the risk that I'll damage it good and proper and not even be able to walk it. Or I can play it safe and resign myself to not running it and just walk round. I hate giving up and being as proper failure, so I'll try and re-start the training and hope it holds up to the strain.
Maureen had her first hydrotherapy treatment on Friday, which was highly amusing! She had a little life jacket put on and (after some persuasion) swam very well. She didn't enjoy it though and I wonder what she'll make of going back on Wednesday..!
Not much else to report. It's very quiet here because Sonia is on holiday (in Egypt - haven't heard from her, but I presume she's OK). My brother and his fiancee are now back in Kuala Lumpar and are in the final throes of organising the wedding. He said that she liked England and wants to come back to live after they're married, so all seems OK.
