Running again

I have been able to run recently, so it looks like my ankle injury is on the way out. I have run three times in the last week, although only about 3k per time. Today I did about 4 k. It felt like the stiffness and pain were melting away, none of the sharp pain I had before. I think the ankle brace really helps, the compression seems to keep the swelling down. I still have to be careful, but I think I'm on my way back. I've lost a fair bit of conditioning, my 3 Ks feel like 10-13 Ks. I think it will come back quickly though. I'm really happy to be able to get out again, I was starting to go nuts without running. Good to get the blood flowing. It's sunny this morning for the first time in a long time. Nice to get a break from the torrential downpour we've been having.
