It’s killing me not being able to run. Summer is already coming, cannot wait to enjoy the burn of sun and heavy sweat.
Should take better care of myself and rest thoroughly after hurting the ankle instead thinking me an super man.
Anyone like running in summer. anyone understand my feeling :weary:
I hope your ankle gets better soon!
i know the pain... i have been laid up with a high ankle sprain. it sucks!
Try having a bum left foot and (now) two arthritis-ridden knees! I haven’t run in years, but I walk when I can at nights (always as an excuse to test out lights).
thanks chloe. do you run often. it makes human sexy.

When as teenager, it’s fast and easy to get better from a hurt. as aging, things get slower. We should take better care of ourselves.
walk more rusty joe, and show good people with your light
Yes, I can’t even tell people what happened.
Why? What happened? Can you tell us?
no, it’s shaming
were you running?
I had knee problems a while back, probably my own fault for not following the 10% weekly increase rule. 
Lately I’ve been trying to get out more, and next week I want to get at least three runs in.
me either, with the right one. so I do squat everyday to strengthen the muscle around my knee.
I’m glad running doesnt make cats sexy or something else :~ 
I feel I can’t walk when I sprained my ankle a year ago. I know the pain.
Actually they have four legs for running, and way out of our league.
I share your frustration before. Ran through a trail with uneven terrain and hit a bend where my left foot snared a hare burrow. I recall my ankle twisting and popping with a loud sound. The pain was blinding and I could barely keep up straight. My son got off his bicycle placed his hand over the swelling ankle and prayed. It felt better somehow and we managed resumed course at a slower pace but it had swelled to double its size like a german pork knuckle by the time we got home. It turned blue black, hurt like mad and took a couple of weeks to subside.
Best treatment for swollen limbs/joints is RICE : Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.
Sorry about your injury — but definitely DON’T try to run through it!
Alternate hot and cold therapy to increase blood flow and aid recovery.
Do an alternative excise: swimming is probably best with your injury. Or maybe biking or a stationary bike. This will help keep you in shape for when you’re ready to return to running.
My advice is to wrap your ankle in a snug Tensor bandage, lay it in the warm lap of a beautiful woman, turn on an old movie, and open a cold beer.
Your ankle might still be sprained, but you won’t even notice. (If you do it right, you can get away with this remedy for about six weeks!)
