Well, poop. Yesterday, a curb came up and grabbed my foot while I was trying to step down to the street. My foot lost. Hoping it's just a really bad sprain, but did go to the doctor to get it x-rayed. Waiting on results. In the meantime, I'm on crutches (can't put any weight on it), icing it, elevating it, and wearing an ankle brace (the top part of my foot got the worst of it, though).
Even if it's "just" a sprain - no Orangetheory workouts for 6 weeks! I don't know what I'm going to do with myself! I froze my membership today, but hoping to be able to start again at the beginning of March. Even when I do start back, I have to powerwalk instead of running, and no jumping, for at least a little bit. In a week, I can try swimming (again, if nothing worse than a sprain). Hopefully that works.
So now, I'm at work. Co-workers are getting me water, coffee, everything I need. I don't like being inactive! But crutches hurt. On the plus side - I'm definitely getting an upper body workout preventing the crutches from digging into my underarms.
