It was fine, honestly nothing really happening to shout about!
I've been on and off with running since Feb as I keep getting shin splints which is really annoying. I'll take a break for a couple of weeks, start again, and by my 3rd run my shins and calves hurt again. I'm convinced it's to do with a new pair of running shoes I started using in January, but I need to book a physio appointment to get some proper advice. I'm dreading them saying that I'll need to take months off to recover.
Definitely get the physio appt. Sooner rather than later.
I've just found out I broke my hip rock climbing.
In January.
Explains why I've been 'uncomfortable' for 5 months.
I would assume breaking your hip would be extremely painful! What's the recovery process for a broken hip?
Yeah. I would have thought so as well, I always assumed a hip break would be wheelchair territory however it seems their are breaks and their are breaks.
Mine is vertical and hairline (not the technical words they used but the ones I understand).
I'm waiting on some more x-rays and my next physio appt. to find out next steps and time frame.
For now I will just keep chomping down on painkillers and stopping my 2k run I try do 3 times a week (and now understand why I've been failing and struggling).
LOL.
I've got a tendon pain in my arm and was moaning about it... I'm gonna shut up now 🙂
Nah. Pains pain and if it hurts it's valid!
Tendon pain can be a bitch.
