My ankle has swollen up, it hasn't hurt much today but it is still swollen up, maybe even a little more. I have biked 35 miles on my stationary bike, its been hard mileage, the only kind of biking I know will actually help me. I have done these 35 miles in less than 115 minutes. So its been at a decent pace, I choose the resistance setting based on what felt most like running. I will not let injury get in the way of my dreams, I am still on fire, I really hope I can do the track workout tomorrow. It is very important to me. Yesterday I did 45 minutes for 14.2 miles and then I did 3 minutes of slow easy cool down. Today I did 17.5 miles in 55 minutes, I decided I wanted to get to 35 miles for the 2 days so I did another 3 miles in 10 minutes. I think these 2 days of cross training will help me long term, and were definitely helpful for the recovery of my ankle, which I really hope is feeling well enough to run on tomorrow.
