Spent most of the day mostly vertical - the worst is over, I hope
Will avoid chicken products for a while

Bit annoyed with myself 
Turned ankle hill repping last Sunday.
Felt it go while swimming on Wednesday.
Went for a long run on Friday.
Could hardly walk around the house yesterday.
(Also the shittest rendition of Craig Davidās classic hit song.)

Doing hill reps with some friends
Who live a couple blocks away from him (Oh)
As he flew up the steep bit
cause he weighs about seven stone three
In front of Doonie
Was a hole in the road in the path of his body (Body)
Didnāt spot in time
Cost him a sprain, a four letter word and no Parkrun next week at nine
Twisted it on Monday
Swollen up and pink on Tuesday
Limping round the house by Wednesday
And on Thursday and Friday and Saturday
Fessed up on Sunday
(Sorry & hope itās mending 
)

Arse, hamstring has gone again 
Had a trail race next week but thatās out, hopefully not as bad as in June as I walked when it got tight.
Dragged on for over 5 months now, need to get it sorted for next year.

First cold in ages, getting out breath walking up the stairs. I donāt think return flights to Copenhagen for work helped. 3 days in constant air con played havoc with my sinuses too.

banged my left shin into the bed this afternoon and split the skin. didnāt think too much about at first but shortly after it felt as if my leggings were getting damp - looked down and thereās blood pouring onto my foot.
thatās the problem when youāre on anticoagulants - a simple cut or split will just gush until I can get pressure on and keep it on for a while.
all OK now with a big plaster on it. had some clearing up of the floor to do though

Sitrep, leg was sore today especially after sitting on it but not what Iād call painful, wouldnāt run on it though.
Went to the physio\massage this evening, seems to be as much the adductor as the hamstring, and the quad was quite tight as well. Painful hour but hopefully helped.
Had a short spin on Zwift was mostly ok, now icing it.
Fingers crossed it wonāt be several months again. Need to get back on with the rehab again.

Rolled my foot in a rut while out running about 6 weeks ago. Still not right. Rather peeved to be honest.

I know a few of us on here struggle a bit in the cold with breathing, @Poet @gingerbongo and @Hammerer and I saw this the other day, also mentions about chlorinated pools which TBF rules out bongo for that 
Anyway, it sounds very similar to asthma and similar treatments, not sure Iād use the Vaseline trick though!
Also highlights the gaming that various committees and coaches use to get TUEās for inhalers, some are obviously genuine

Iāll have you know I have been in a pool at least once a week for the last 4 weeks now.
OK, granted Iāve been doing underwater races, wrestling and trying to stop the youngest from drowning. But I have been getting wet.

I am over my cold but still coughing a bit and still easily out of breath. Will avoid running until I can breathe as normal. Just easy rides on the trainer.

Last night, felt my hip flexors were tight, tighter than normal. Ignored it.
Today, moved my desk and office stuff.
Now, back is fucked. Its bad. Im so pissed off. Got a double cricket nets session booked for Wednesday and there is no way I can bat or bowl.
Got to stretch and I dont know, heat, Ibuprofen, pray to God it gets better.
