seem to have weak ankles? And why does that sound just a bit dirty?
I had a major problem with my ankle and it seems I'm in good company

This should be a poll!
I would answer, YES. I once sprained my ankle while standing. Really.

I have weak ankles, but that has less to do with being on BN, but rather that I drink too much... and fall down... a lot...

My ankles sometimes roll while im walking.
That really hurts.

one of my ankles is swiss cheese, from my misspent youth as a softball player.... I've blown it out three times.....

I have a VERY weak left one - that I cannot even physically touch without suffering pain and the desire to faint
Courtesy of a trip walking down a gravel path and breaking it in two places, then when the cast was removed, and I was on my Army camp - I fell in to a chair (alcohol related

) and rebroke in one place - instant arthritis and it is not set properly - so stuck with it for life ...
so guess I am in the "yes" side for this question

Already 5 affirmatives other then me. I knew it. Isn't that some sort of odd statistical thing, like if 80 percent of us were left handed which I am.

I'd have to say that I have very strong ankles...7 marathons later and no sign of injury...maybe I am just not true BN girl???

It's a bell curve so it's ok.
Kitty you are the envy of BN girls the world over for your strong ankles.

Ankles are fine.

The feet themselves? Not so good. But mostly my right one.

Neuroma, stress fracture, Plantar Faciitis. Ick.

Big yes here for 2 weak ankles. One has had reconstructive surgery on the foot and ankle from being crushed, the other ankle was splintered, never healed right, so likes to crack or sprain at the drop of a hat.
And I'm a lefty too
