The Universe Doesn't Want Me to Run

7.12.2012

July 12, 2012
Really? Really world? I'm trying to run. Can't you support my healthy choices? Apparently you want me to get fat and I don't appreciate it. 

I rolled my ankle again!

I know that doesn't sound all that bad but it is. Oh it is. See when I played soccer in high school I rolled my ankles pretty constantly. I was one of those really dumb people who would never let themselves heal and just jump back in. Now I'm paying for it. A couple years back a doctor told me that if I rolled my ankle again I would have to have surgery. Want to know what happened? I rolled it again... and again. What about the surgery, you ask? I'm avoiding it, like the plague.

I haven't really rolled my ankle in a couple years. Until now. Stupid ankle, why do we need them anyway? They're more of a liability. I just want to get back in shape and stop feeling like a fat lard butt! 

End of rant.

That really sucks. If you feel like taking my advice though - have the surgery!!! I guess America's health system makes life tough (it's much cheaper over in the land of oz), but it will make such a difference! I unintentionally avoided surgery for a long long time for knee problems. The feeling at the end of rehab when your joint isn't always sore and swollen and doing silly things is amazing. And you'll be able to run again :P So, so worth it! :D

Either way though, I hope it's better soon! Rhi xx

Oh man that sucks!! I rarely get the chance to work out so I started doing The Atkins Diet. Lowcarb which is a bummer but I found a bunch of websites that have mock recipes where you can make low carb food that tastes like stuff like pizza and pancakes and such..Already lost 10 pounds in a little over a month! I hope you start feeling better!

NO! That's awful! I used to think my ankles were prone to rolling (so I avoid trail running), but that is intense. So sorry :(

I totally feel your frustration! My knee gives out every time I run and it is incredibly frustrating. Good luck!
