I took about a week-longish break from running to let my ankle rest. I decided to repeat week 5 of my Couch to 5k plan this week, and (I know...it's Wednesday, I'm so not on the ball) today was my first run of Wee 5 part 2.
And I actually did really well!!! No ankle pain, yay, and I completed all the runs. granted I did it kind of slower than usual, at about 4.4 mph, which sucks...but what can you do. It felt great.
I didn't know if I would be able to run as well but the days I haven't gotten to the gym I've been doing my Jillian Michaels workout video which really pumps me up and I feel like I work hard and am getting toned at the same time.
I'll probably run again tomorrow and spend some real quality time at the gym. Lately I am getting sad that my gym (planet fitness) doesn't offer good classes. It's a cheap, no-frills gym, so I can't expect much, but I'll say this: If they did offer say, spinning or yoga, I'd do it!!
That's all for now: I'll update tomorrow. xoxo

Way to go on getting back in the game!! Your determination is very inspirational! There was a point in my life where I could barely run 30 seconds, now I'm signed up for a 1/2 marathon! Crazy!
