I was selected as an ambassador for the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler and I couldn't be more excited! I’ve been running for a number of years now and it always feels good to hit that PR - although they are getting harder to find these days! I sprained my ankle twice around the holidays and have done almost no running since the first week of December....whomp whomp. It has sucked.
Trying to be smart about getting back out there. This year, as I train for the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler, I’m training with Runcoach. Runcoach is an app that provides tailored training plans based on your schedule, history, and goal pace and is the official online training program for the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler.
I am excited to get started. My physical therapist has said after tests last week that my right ankle now has the same strength as my left which is a great sign. I ran a 10k a week ago and a ten miler this past weekend and my body felt okay albeit slower since I have not been running. I was still feeling some soreness/fatigue in the right arch which my PT says is connected to the ankle (who knew!) and soreness in the front of the ankle almost where the tongue of your shoe goes. So.....I know I am not out of the water yet. I do not feel like I can return to the volume or paces of where I was before just yet - although I want to so badly!
Excited to have you follow along and show you the Run Coach online program/app which is FREE to Cherry Blossom Participants!
