I'm injured. Twice actually. I have an ongoing issue with my foot that is being seen to (slowly) by a podiatrist. I have also managed to damage my gluteus medius, causing hip pain. Been seen by a sports physio, who seemed to make it better but a 1 mile slow run brought back the pain.
I am going stir crazy (and getting chubby) from not running. What else can I do that is similar to running? I have a bike, and I don't mind cycling, but don't find it relaxing in the same way as running. More like a form of transport. I'm not a fan of swimming (all the leg shaving and hair washing).
What I love about running is the fact you can just go out and do it, it is pretty much the only time I get on my own and I don't have to concentrate on anything- I go into the zone!
