Sprained ankle

See here the result from a friendly game of baseball… I sprained my left ankle (the right one the picture, obviously) sliding into second base on a steal attempt yesterday. I knew right away what had happened, but we didn’t have any substitutes available and it didn’t feel too bad, so I stayed in the game for the remaining two innings. I shouldn’t have done that of course, because the best way to recover from a sprained ankle is to rest it immediately. Now I can hardly stand, let alone walk or cycle to work, so I’ll have to work from home for a day.

Fortunately my competition season ended last week with our winning the championship, so my ankle has over three months to recover before winter practice starts again.
