I was doing step-ups with a kettlebell. I stepped up and BAM!, my ankle gave out. I have no clue why, but I ended up with a sprained ankle.
I was supposed to do the Race for the Cure 5k on Saturday, but nope. I was super excited for it too because I had just gotten back from a great 3 mile run and the weather on Saturday is supposed to be perfect!
Oh well.
On the plus side-I was able to convince my husband to run the 5k for me so at least one of us can be healthy! He did great, but I'm still working on being a spectator. He's much better at that than I am. (I was also pouting about not running a little bit).
I will have to figure out some upper body workouts to keep some of the calories off. (Calcium from ice cream WILL help me heal)
We'll see if I can figure out how to stay healthy while injured. It's going to be tough.
Any advice?
You can try stationary biking, just make sure it doesn't aggravate your ankle too much
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll try that! Thanks :)
