I went for a gentle walk on Sunday afternoon - just a mile and a half - to see how I got on. It was lovely to be out in the fresh air, but my ankle was a little swollen by the time I got home.
Yesterday I jumped on the exercise bike, and did a 45 minute cycle, covering 16km. At least non-impact exercise doesn't cause any trouble to my ankle, so I was able to have a reasonable workout without any worries that I was storing up trouble for later.
I think I'll try a short walk again this morning, then rest my ankle up for a while before I head into work.
Plans are coming together for a quiz night. I've got two potential venues; one close to home that will charge a small fee for the hire of the room, but I can provide the food, and the second a few miles from home where I can use the room for free, but we will pay them to provide food. I'm getting a few more details from both before I decide which way to jump.
I've started putting together quiz questions, and am working on the basis of ten rounds of ten questions, including a picture round. It's really good fun searching for facts and figures, but difficult to strike a balance between easy enough so that everyone will do fairly well, but not too hard that everyone complains!
I know that I'm not in tip top form at the moment, but it's a good job I'm not easily offended...the company that I ordered my orthotics from sent me a brochure this morning. Do you think they're trying to tell me something???
