11 Months gone and New Season starts this weekend!

Well 11 months ago,  & 1 month into the football season I ruptured my Left achilles.

It’s now a few day’s until the new footy season starts, and I can’t wait!

Pre-season has gone really well, apart from an early pull that turned out to be nothing major.

If you’d have asked me 10 months ago if I’d be back playing this early I’d have thought you were mad, but here I am.

My only worry is not for my bad leg, but the good one! Every tighting of my right leg sends shivers down my spine! Probably just my mind playing tricks, but I make sure I fully warmed up and stretched.

Fingers crossed for a winning start on Sunday :)

 

*** Sod’s law, 10 minutes into final pre-season game i dislocate my finger taking a cross!!!!! Is my body telling me something? On the plus side If i’m not playing footy, I can spend more time with my little lad nathan :) *****

10mins into final pre-season game, and i go and dislocate my finger!!!

Congratulations on making back to the game. All the best for the weekend and also your London marathon (when you are up for it).

Well done - so good to hear more success stories everyday to give encouragement to those of us still earlier on in our recoveries.
Still supporting the Saints?

Great news Jimbo,

You will be turning out for Southampton next! Any changes for the better/worse since the takeover? How’s the baby doing?

Good luck with further progress

So good to hear your good news, hope all goes well for you. I am glad you are warming up before the game. It Makes so much sense now you know what can happen.

Cheers everyone for the kind words.

As you can now see I’ll miss the start of the season anyway with a dislocated finger…sods law!

Saints are doing ok Annie, taking it slowly and building a team proabbly for a promotion push next season!

Nathan’s doing well 6months old now so a real handfull, but a gorgeous little lad, happy all the time which is ace.

& bubble , yeah still on course for the 2010 London Marathon.. plenty of work to be done mind you, don’t think i’ll be setting any personal bests.

cheers all
