After you’ve been fitted for the right shoes and just started moving toward your journey of running, I’m sure the chances of injury aren’t the first things that will cross your mind.  But whether you’re new or old to running I can guarantee at some point in your running career you will suffer an injury.  That’s not to say running will cause the injury.  Something freak, like my accident last month, could hinder your training plans.  You may have to take time off from running, but depending on the injury you may be able to do another form of workout that can take the place of running.

Since I haven’t been able to keep to my training 100% I’ve finally been able to implement the use of my Human Trainer that I won from Bex at Bexlife.com several months ago.  I’ve been wanting to use the equipment for months but haven’t been able to fit it in the training schedule.  Injuring myself gave me the prime opportunity to do so and has helped me stay sane.

If you’re ever injured you may have to think outside the box, but don’t just throw in the towel.  And most importantly, listen to your body!

Keep Smiling and Be Grateful =)
