I could have died!

I had the most eventful morning. I started my day with my 15km morning run. 20 mins into my run, I fell and my ankle went 'CRACK'. I sat at the side of the road and started crying. I wasn't crying just because it was so f**king painful and I could see the veins popping from my calves to my ankles, BUT I was crying mostly because I was afraid I couldnt run for a week or so. I started praying in tongues for a good 20mins. It was 615 in the morning and there wasn't anyone around to help me. But who needs help when I had God. I stood up, wipe my tears and tried to walk for a bit. I thought to myself, "Should I just go home now? But what the hell, I really wanna run." SO i took the step of faith. And many steps of faith followed. I made it even though I was limping throughout my run. I completed my 15km route! Strange enough, the pain was bearable and I didn't think much of it.

However, everytime I slow down or stop at a traffic light, I could feel the pain acting up again. So I tried to beat all the traffic lights to prevent myself from stopping. And this SAVED MY LIFE. I was at the traffic light of Le Meridien, a shopping mall in town, crossing over to the Istana (where the President's office is, it's like the white house of Singapore). As I didnt want to stop, I just continued to run even though I was suppose to wait for the lights to turn green. And GUESS WHAT?? 2 seconds after I stepped off the pavement, a MPV crashed with a taxi and the MPV charged right up the pavement where I was suppose to be waiting. F**K! Can u believe it? Everyone was screaming because I could have been smashed. The green barriers came flying off as the mpv crashed and the barriers hit other cars. I was that CLOSE to becoming pancake or worst. I was in shock and some tourist who witnessed the accident (they were the screamers) asked me if I was ok. I nodded, still in shock and continued to run. Tears started pouring down my cheeks as I ran. I'm still recovering from the shock. If I didn't jay walk or jay run, I would have been hit by the car just by standing at the pavement. God is so good.

BTW, my ankle is swollen like a pig's now. In a lot of pain. Looks like I won't be able to run for a while. SADNESS. I hope I don't get depressed. I'm really damn upset about it.

What a day. I'm still in a shock. Happy that I didn't get knocked down but super super upset about my ankle.

Hey, I am sorry about your ankle. Hopefully it is a sprain. But a quick remedy to get back into the game. Is to massage the swollen area (up toward the leg) for 15 minitues, 3 times a day. Do this for about 3 day, and you should be back. Also Ice and elevate, which i am sure you are doing. When i was running track in College, i use to sprin my ankle all the time. The coches treated my leg this way and I was always back in two days. Till this day, i use this method. And it still works. So don't be discouraged.

hey elizabeth! Thanks for the advice.. I think it's just a sprain cos the pain is subsiding already.. but it's painful when I try to rub it. Should I still just go ahead and massage? the swell is better today and I can walk with almost no pain with the help of the ankle brace.. been icing it and also sleeping with my legs elevated. :)

Keep on rubbing it. I will be very painful, but you gotta get all that blood away from the ankle. Glad that you are recovering.
