I hurt my back recently and I'm not exactly sure how, but it really limited what I could do. I still tried to do some push-ups and walked when I could. It seems to be okay now. Injuries are annoying as you will feel you are going backwards if you can't do your usual routine. I certainly missed my running, but I didn't really lose any fitness.

the important thing is to stay in the game. It is really easy to fall behind and lose focus and just accept a life of flabbitude because honestly, that is a lot easier. Most injuries are rather minor and there are lots of other things that you can do even if it is just some pushups to remind your body "hey, I'm still here.....we are still working" :)
'Funnily' enough the day after I wrote that comment I tripped over on parkrun and made a mess of my leg, arm and hands on the gravel. Nothing broken though. It's all a bit sore, but I got out running again today as I feel okay otherwise. I can't just sit around feeling sorry for myself. I have a 10km race to run next month as well as doing parkrun.

Sorry, out of BEER, please retry later...
