Instead of doing the Betws Trail Challenge I did two loops of the parking lot near my house. That was all I figured my ankle could take. And I didn't want to build things up too fast. And that was late November.
It is now mid December. How are things? Well! I built things up to 5 loops of the parking lot. That is some 380 m. So the good news is that I am indeed not building it up too fast now. But it also means that it took me two weeks to go from about 200 to less than 400 m. That is really slow. If I keep that going, it will take me two years to get back to 10 km form. I think it's time I see if I can get back to the physio. I hope he has ideas! Because this is frustrating.

I am also now missing The Christmas fun run of the running club. So what's next? I don't think I'm registered for anything at the moment, but the next race in the general running agenda is the Nick beer 10k. It's on February 9. Could I possibly get my ankle back in shape on time for that? I have no idea! The next one along the line is, I think, Ras Llyn Trawsfynydd, a14k race, on April 13. That's four months away. I really hope I can do that! And also, it is a lovely race. I suppose time will have to tell…
