Ankle still quite sore and swollen, although in an isolated area. Still can't walk properly.

Got out for a walk down to the Spa Gardens today. Even tried a little bit of jogging. Not very successful, still can't put weight forwards over the foot properly without my heel lifting. Achilles was quickly quite sore on the inside while attempting to jog so had to give that up.

On the plus side, we finished watching season two of Vikings :)

Ankle was stiffer first thing this morning but improved over the first couple of hours. I saw the physio today which hopefully will help. I've been given some new exercises to do. I tried to cancel flights and car booking for Scotland next weekend, as it unlikely I'll be able to run, but British Airways wouldn't refund any of the purchase price.

Swelling has reduced some more. Managed to walk down to the supermarket today. More icing, elevation and movement exercises.

Swelling has reduced and mobility increased a little today. Managing a bit of unsupported walking (hobbling) which is a good sign.

Visit to the hospital for physio assessment. Didn't tell me anything I didn't know though, that is, that I've sprained my ankle. Slightly less swelling today, more bruising. No racing for me tonight, not happy.

Can't walk. Visit to the GP followed by a visit to hospital for an X-ray. No fractures thankfully but on crutches.
