• I fractured and dislocated my right ankle last Wednesday, slipping on an icy pavement.

    It's been popped back in, but I'm waiting for a date for surgery, some metalwork to secure the bone.

    I'm hoping for a full recovery, but not too sure what to expect.

    I've historically been keen on long distance running and cycling, but that's fallen slightly by the wayside with a young family.

    Any anecdata around regarding fractured ankles?

  • My cousin shattered both his ankles in his early 30s in a dirt bike accident when he overshot his landing.
    His wife wasn't too keen on him continuing his hobby anymore so he took up MTB instead. Now some 10 years later he's a more than decent mountain biker / cyclist, having completed Roc d'Azur.
    Your ankle will take time to heal, but there's hope just yet
