well you definately can't come in then!!

LOL, ask Wheeze quite how 'good' I am ... it is because the others are even worse I suppose , I mean, these things are all relative, are they?

Besides, it is all hypothetical at the moment anyway, as it doesn't look as I shall be able to take to the fells anytime soon, with my dodgy ankle...

my ankle is goosed too - has been for 2 years in feb then I really really hurt it a coupls of months ago so run with it taped up - physio showed me how to properly do it - was more a botch job proir.....anyway - can't run without it but it's helped lots and lots.

I think most fell runners ankles are a bit dodgy at the best of times? I find taping it up actually is counter productive... my problem is the plantarflexion of the foot, not a sideways instability... but am using a wobbleboard (please no Rolf Harris puns, they are getting long in the tooth now) to strengthen the ankle and it does seem to help...

The one I have torn is the anterior talo-fibular ligament... it sits on the outside of the ankle at the top and attaches the front of the foot to the fibula... I think that is the one I have done in anyway, but without an MRI, I won't know for sure...
