Trail Run warm up/down 10:00 [1]
shoes: Integrators 2007

Warmup for Billygoat. Feeling awesome and ready to rock.

Orienteering race 4:00 [4] 0.5 km (8:00 / km)
shoes: Integrators 2007

Got a couple hundred meters down the trail at the start of the Billygoat, but as soon as I stepped off the trail my right foot went into a hole and all my weight went onto my ankle. Sprained it pretty bad because I still can't put weight on it a day later. Went to the ER and got it x-rayed to confirm there was no break, but doc said I had to stay off it for at least 3 days and until I see an orthopedist.

I'm not too excited about this because it seems to be quite a bit worse than the sprain I got last year. I seem to remember being able to at least put some weight on it pretty soon after it happened, and there was no shooting pain when I did so. I'll wait until I see a specialist before I make any conclusions but I'm definitely going to play this safe because I can't risk reinjuring it and I do actually have a few weeks to spare at this point.

Unfortunately I won't be able to see a specialist for another 10 days or so because I'm flying out west tomorrow to help my brother drive all his stuff back from Salt Lake. 10 days in the car is probably the best thing for me right now anyway though...
