Date of walk : Saturday 31st.March
Distance : 3.1 miles
The ankle injury was much worse than I had anticipated and it has been extremely frustrating. It annoyed me so much that I didn't bother writing in my blog. I went to the Lakes mid February as I had promised Beth but it was pretty scary as the minute I left the firm ground on the road it just felt like my ankle was going to give way.
This made me decide to have the ankle checked again and what I hadn't realised at the time was that as well as damaging my ankle I had caused considerable damage to my achilles tendon. I decided to give it healing time and and once I was moving reasonably well (early March) I put myself on a regime of walks involving footpaths and roads and sadly where I live this didn't involve anything worth blogging or photographing.
The ankle isn't perfect yet but I will have to take my time. Anyway, I decided to use the lower level at Dovestones Reservoir to see how the ankle was feeling. It's not the most exciting walk in the world but the scenery isn't too bad. In fact, Beth refused to come with me as she said it was a boring walk and she would only come once we could go back in the hills. Kids!!
