I too am struggling to return from the depths of injury and want to do so on a firm foundation. I'm starting with strengthening exercises and low miles to build up slowly. I had what turned out to be a hammer toe and also broke my arm on a run. Now I am struggling with candida having its way with me. No more pavement unless absolutely unavoidable and no extreme ramping up mileage just to make a race I'm not ready for. Good luck, @bitttermelllon I'm rooting for you!
Oh gosh - breaking your arm on a run! That sounds like a traumatic experience. The worse I have had was a messed up ankle due to some black ice, and that was enough to make me warry about going back out for a bit. I wish you all the best with your journey (candida is no fun at all), and would love to stay updated through some posts!
