I hurt my ankle on Wednesday. I don't think it was a sprain, it didn't hurt until about an hour after my run and barely hurt. I RICEd it for the majority of two days. The second morning it did hurt a bit more and was unstable, but I kept resting it and it never swelled. It's Sunday now, no pain in days, no swelling, I'm back to walking on it normally. Can I run again tomorrow? Or at least bike or something? I did go swimming yesterday but I'm losing my mind not working out.

    I'd try a short run and see how it feels the next day. If it hurts, switch to cycling or weights or whatever.
