The First of Many

I suffered my first training related injury this morning. While doing lateral jumps over a hurdle i whacked the side of the hurdle with my ankle. It stiffened up and started swelling immediately but I hung in there. It did hamper my ability to throw a right cross or do pushups or squats for the rest of the class though. Im going to let it heal up using the good old RICE method. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. I iced it for an hour after I got home and now i have it wrapped up under my sock. when i get home, I'll put more ice on it, prop it up while i watch burn notice and drink my beer through a bendy straw. Oh yeah. I'm a bad ass.
