Being out of action sucks.

Why is it always that when you can't do something you want to do it even more.

I know what you mean; I hurt my achilles last week and I've responded by buying two running magazines, buying a new pair of trainers, nearly buying trail running shoes and spending most of my time on here, I haven't been able to go running properly for 6 months and I'm suffering severe withdrawal.

Yer telling me! I'm tearing the walls down!
Even my wife has gone out to escape my despair!!
My Mate(?) even came round tonight for an indian, and he told me about his 9 mile run today! AAAARRRGGGHHHH!

That's just nasty!

Funny though.

hmmm.....that's what friends are for

Strange to think that 2 years ago, the idea of going out for a run horrified me, but now I get really excited whenever I think I might be able to start running again

I remember getting really excited once.................!

This is another thread title which is open to misinterpretation come Monday when the workers return

Squint

Totally agree. While out of action I was getting aggrevated seeing others running, especially when I was walking the dog. Sometimes I felt like shouting to them 'Hey I can run too but have a sore leg'

Hello!

Well, I'm voluntarily going to take 3 days off running, maybe longer. This morning I just couldn't be bothered, and I have a drinks thing tomorrow after work, and Tuesday might have to work late. I think I need the rest and hopefully will start again on Wednesday a lot stronger and rejuvinated. I haven't taken more than a day or two break for a long time, so I think I've earned it.
