Jeepers this is frustrating - I like running, i love getting on the treadmill and doing my intervals of walking/running - it makes me feel good... Mentally i can do it, physically my legs are fine, my breathing is pretty good - but i get this pain in my ankle, like in the back, the tendon - and it stops me every damn time - Its fine when i walk, but as soon as i get into running the pain just kills me - I did some research last night and found that my calf muscle that joins my tendon may be a little short - so i should try these little heal things in my runners which lift my ankle just slightly... Now, easy you say - but how much are they gonna cost me? I am a single mother, with 2 kids, i work part time (3-4 days per week) yet i can still only just manage money - the rent kills me, 540 per f/n just on rent, i have paid these people 12,000 bucks in the time i have been here.. SHOCKING! and they own this house - god its so hard. I rent my treadmill weekly for like 12 bucks, its money i spend on ME.. and sometimes i think i shouldn't even have that - as money is tight, I see a lot of people reward themselves at 5kg, or 10 etc, i cant even afford to do that - I'm a lost cause at times. Its 10.13am, no work today so need to keep busy, going to walk into town and back - just for fun.. yeah, life is a barrel of laughs.

Exercise so far - 2klms on treadmill, .8 running.
