Good morning!
Yesterday, I took part in the Governor's Cup 10K. This is an annual race in Helena, so it was nice to not have to travel anywhere but down the street this time :)
Right before, literally, a few minutes before the race, my friend Liz and I decided to trample down a tiny little hill on to a less busy area to stretch. PROBLEM- I rolled my ankle on my way down the tiny little hill.
Regardless of all the pain in my ankle, I knew I still had to run this race.
It had to be between mile 3 and 4 that I stopped and walked a hill. Not really because of my ankle, but I just felt that I needed a walk break.
I improved my time from my most recent 12K by 28 seconds per mile, which I was happy with! However, the minute I crossed the finish line and began walking, my ankle throbbed with pain. I rested and iced it last night, but it's very kankle-like today :(
I'm training for a half-marathon in one month and I'm really hoping my ankle feels better VERY SOON so I can train hard ASAP!
I'll keep you all posted as to if I have a perma-kankle or if it goes away :) Other than the swollen ankle, yesterday went well!
I hope you're all enjoying your weekends....
I'm hoping to add more pictures soon- my camera is hiding out in Josh's car :)
