I've made new years resolutions in the past some have stuck others haven't. I've quit smoking, biting my nails, drinking totally and meat as of new years gone by.

I’m just about to come back from my longest running break in about 5 years. Well at least I hope I am after a sore foot/ankle. This break has been almost 2 months and was totally intentional.

Some of you keeners may have picked up on the fact that I haven't been running lately. Since September My left foot/ankle has been acting weird.
