Not a social faux pas, although it was in drunken company- on my walk home from a night in town I turned over on my ankle and it swelled up and went black and blue. That was me out of action for the 10 miler last weekend, and 7 days on, the swelling and bruising have gone down but it is still very sore and swimming is even a bit much for it. I could be looking at a 3 to 4 week healing here, unless of course I have broken something, which I am not ruling out. Hope not, last week sucked- could barely put on my left shoe. Got more mobility now and will look to strengthen it this week.
On the 300 challenge I managed 16 Pull ups and 35 Press-ups continuously. Left the run well alone!
Also came down with a cold and cough and it is really difficult to gig with enthusiasm then but scraped through it. Got some wedding gigs approaching and I see this as a good long term strategy, both the afters and the ceremony.
So, I'll use the gym and keep motivated and hopefully be right as rain for the half marathon in mid Sept...
As an aside, I was in the All Irelands in tag TWICE this year! Great stuff- we won the league with the Taguars and got to the semis of the SuperBowl in the All Ireland. And I was drafted into TAGGAGE in the IRFU All Irelands and helped them win the Superbowl- emotionally I put down the winning try in extra time!
