How and when? Sorry to hear! I shall pray for your recovery :pray:

[crazyfacials]

they're too different things (a sprain vs a break) what did you do? can you put weight on it? can you move it?

[loveggs]

Um.. so you sprained/ broke your foot... why would that stop you doing a course?

Properly treated, it's not like you'd be bed-ridden, surely ?

Now maybe it means time off the ski-slopes, but it certainly doesn't mean an end to keeping your fitness. Just think of it as a time when you worked on upper-body strength.

They could practice on you! You could be a live injured person

Haha lovely posts.

Going to docs today to get xrays and crutches (novelty - never had before - some sly shin wacking to come haha) and to see if it is a sprain or break. cant put weight on it at all but can kind of move me tootsies.

It's a firefighters first aid course so it's very physical, but am going to ring them and see if I can still do it. lol i considered offering myself as the patient.

Hypocondriac?? If you were a daily runner and drive a manual (haha) I think you'd be more than a little gutted to. But yea I'm keen to take this opportunity to work on my upper body.

Trying to think of the positives !

You can work around it somehow! Adversity creates inventiveness!

Yea bit of a bummer being out of action aye! Reult = broken 5th metatarsal, ligament attached to broken off bit. fracture clinic tomorow to establish whether I need surgery but fingers crossed its only 6 weeks.

Don't try using your foot untill it's healed. You want it to heal as best as possible, the foot is one of those moving parts where injuries that don't heal right can cause chronic pain.

+1

remember you dont have to do cardio to lose weight. just focus on your diet and letting your foot heal properly

[HazelM]

Cheers.

Yeaup hopefully wanting to make a speedy recovery and am back into the weight sessions now.
