A train cancellation leading to a 4 hour delay with a busted leg is not how I envisioned today.

Re-building. Physically and mentally.

After a big injury, it doesn't just trash you physically. It screws you mentally too.

You lose a lot of yourself. Last time, my head went. I pushed people I love away and made bad choices. No excuses. Was still me.

But I won't let it define me this time. 💪 #NoACLNoProblem

So I guess that's part of the healing and growing ☺️🌻

Even after being told I have a ruptured ACL and may never return to competitive sport, I haven't holed up which it definitely once would have.

Now, just super chuffed and celebrating their wins from a distance. 🥳🙌✨ (2/2)

Seeing the person you care about most and adore absolutely killing it 💪 is a great feeling! 🥳🙌

Once upon a time I would have let other things, stress, insecurities, make me emotionally unavailable and distract away this feeling, celebrating these wins...(1/2)

Some open water swimming recovery followed by a big solo hike to rehab/test the knee! Loads of thinking and missing...

Finished up with possibly the best Unagi-don in Manchester and a nice catch at Pixel.

A day in Westminster, discussing "change" and "chances". Albeit about employment, the concept came from the heart.

Another day I wish I could have shared.
