And then there are times when all you get are stinky, rotten lemons.
YUCK.
It's what you do with the stinky lemons that defines your character. Right?
You are going along, enjoying your running life - beautiful long runs, short fast runs, races, or not racing at all.
Just. Running.
And then you get injured.
UGH.
So, you can cry in your soup, eat lots of cake and get out of shape.
OR
you can find other ways to stay fit, heal your injury and when you go back to running - its not so bad after all.
Head down to the local pool, or your backyard if you are lucky enough to have your own!
You can still stay fit without the impact of running.
