AT 37, AND DOING MORE RUNNING AND TRAINING❗️ Two months after my ankle injury, it was never easy to start doing activities. I couldn’t walk farther. My ankle still swells again and again from too much walking especially when I’m at work. One thing that scared me most was I knew I lost balance. I couldn’t raise my left leg and let another one stand alone. I felt my body was already like a withering leaf each day. It was distressing. I never liked waking up in the morning and doing nothing. THAT IS NOT ME! I’m used to getting into my trainers and getting sweaty early in the morning. So, I did myself a favor. I started with a 10-minute meditation routine every morning right after saying my prayer. I started with a very light exercise; Hatha yoga that focuses more on proper breathing and stretching. Believe me, it was still kind of demanding in my situation that my leg had lost its balance. It was never easy, but I was just lucky to be with amazing trainers at the yoga center. Thanks to them, I eventually got back to my feet, stronger. I then added my full-body strength training workout at least three times a week. Exactly four months now after my injury, I decided to get back running, slowly and gently, trying to feel that tingling pain in my precious ankle. Amazingly, there was none! I’ve been running for a week now, though slower than my normal pace, I’m still grateful for my achievement this week - 10.89 km at 6.27/km pace in 1h 10m duration. I won’t be able to do this all again if my effort wasn’t consistent and without God’s healing touch. This is another answered prayer, and I’m looking forward to more of this. As I age, I will do more running and training! #phuket #lifestyle #training #fitness #running #fitspiration #active #fitnessmotivation #fitspo #tagforlikes #followforfollowback (at เขื่อนบางวาดภูเก็ต - Bangward Dam) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNeVzVaH1RB/?igshid=17dmjzwrquy3r

The journey of my ankle’s recovery wasn’t that easy. I needed the hands of those people who unconditionally held me every single day when my foot was still in casts. I’m beyond words in gratitude, and I know that THANK YOU is not enough for all the favors they have given me. There too many names to mention, but again, THANK YOU SO MUCH. My ankle’s continuous recovery is God’s favor, and I couldn’t ask for more. I know it’s still has a long way to go; rest, therapy, etc are still needed for it to fully recover. It’s challenging to fully get back to my feet and do some of the things I used to do, but my faith in God’s healing touch is intact and I wholeheartedly believe in it. I’ll just continue to do my part; religiously do the therapy at least twice or thrice a day as required and will continuously practice a healthy lifestyle. #recovery #injury #ankle #journey (at Phuket All Season place) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ8ve0rHVuU/?igshid=zakh12btgi87

I woke up early in the morning and hit the beach with two of my favorites that give comfort to my injured ankle. Though it’s still a bit swollen and bruised, I’m so much grateful for its continuous recovery with the help of these two essential oils - PanAway & Frankincense. God, they are life savers! #phuket #lifeontheisland #beach #youngliving #panaway #frankincense #healing #recovery (at Yanui Beach Hideaway) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJz13FrHysR/?igshid=nx156qtcjg2w

This morning half marathon was one of my most awaited events this month. Though I knew I wouldn’t be able to make it this time, I just wanted to be involved and still be part of this event. I needed not to lose my momentum on the thing I love most doing - running. So, I came to support my friends, and see the people - phuket runners - I admire in this field. Seeing them marvelously hauling was really inspiring. I will get better and train harder, and soon the track will have me back on my feet stronger and faster. 🏃‍♀️#kathuhalfmarathon2020 #runnersworld #lifestyle #run #journaling #fitnessmotivation #phuket (at Phuket, Thailand) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIusBJJnZKB/?igshid=q854z9rfaxy4
