Injured. Bah.
Everything was going so well. Running was good. Biking with GYCC training ride was going okay. I had joined Bannatynes gym and swimming was progressing then...
Running EACCL round at Fritton was cruising along with Philo, 2 mile in and I went over on my ankle. Honestly thought I'd broken it. Rolled around for a bit, after stopping the Garmin, and then hobbled back to the start. This was when stupidity kicked in. I then ran another 2 miles before dropping out. Yes 2miles on a knackered ankle. Idiot.
Its now 4 weeks since I ran properly and it is still not 100%. Tried a couple of miles a fortnight ago but had to walk home.
So I've been swimming with a pull bouy, lifting weights and spinning in the house.
Did go out out for the first time in a month with the group on Sunday and 3 times they had to stop and wait for me. Frankly thats embarrassing!
I'm going to try running again latter this week and build slowly over the Xmas.
New year the real tri training starts again and I can't wait!!
On a personal note my Gran fell in the home a few weeks ago breaking six ribs. Honestly thought she would be okay. She developed Pneumonia and died a week ago. I feel crushed. I know she was 91 but she's been so central to my life that I tended to think she would live forever. I hope she's with my Grandad now. Worst time I have ever been through. Emotion keeps pouring out. Funeral next week. Hopefully we will all cheer up before Xmas.
