Mentally, down in the dumps right now. Have been off from running for 2 weeks cause of ITB syndrome. My life has pretty muc revolved around running the past few months and now, I can’t sleep,I’m in bed all day, I don’t feel as energetic. 0 motivation for strength training, 0 motivation to get on the stationary bike.
How do you guys even bounce back from an injury. I feel like my trainings the past few months has all been for nothing.
Ugh we’ve all been there – really sorry you’re dealing with this. This is a good time to find some other things to fill your time and one reason why it’s so important to have other hobbies. Go for a walk, read a book, visit with friends – anything to get up and out of the house and engage your brain. Running will be there when you’re healed. Right now, the most important part of your training is recovery.
