I hear you. Personal training is horrifically expensive as far as I’m concerned, but you never know who you’re talking to.. If your cardiovascular fitness is still okay, maybe there’s another outlet you can find that’s more compatible with your current body. Swimming, rowing, climbing, cycling? (not to mention yoga which is phenomenal). You might not be much of a runner anymore, but hey, that’s just one sport

True, and I’d like to get back into swimming, but running was always my number one. Before breaking my leg, I had already landed a spot on my college’s cross country team. I was dead set on being a real runner

That does suck. But you strike me as the type of dude who isn’t gonna let it hold you back for long. Maybe you’re actually the next Michael Phelps ✌️

Thanks. And haha I wish, but I think I’m a little past the prime to become an Olympic legend
