15 days - no holding me back!

Today I went for a 3k (1.86miles) walk! I know, crazy! You wouldn't be doing that on crutches without sore arms. I really got the hang of the iWalk 2.0 and found holding the handle made tackling all but the steepest hill doable. Going uphill more pressure goes on the front pad of the foot and coming down more pressure goes on the back so it balances the wear out.

The only I'll effect I have is a bit of a rub from the top of the cast. If I had padded it like I padded the plaster cast then it wouldn't have happened but I know that now. 

It's just a little red and there's a slight lump where the bruising is. The rest of the leg is fine, no swelling, no pain.

It was nice to get out in the fine weather . I enjoyed it so much. It was a hilly route so I think I must have burned a few calories, definitely more than lying around on the bed or sofa. We are due for another dump of heavy rain over the next two days so I'll have plenty of recovery time.

Now, if I only had hand controls on my car there'd be no stopping me!
