Comments:
ran to the track through the cemetery for a long warm up before steeple work. ran about 3.5. did some water jumps, then a hurdle, water, hurdle sequence that felt pretty good. my ankle was hurting though-- just sore from the water jumps mostly. then we got ready for the relay. i was a captain, and assembled a solid team. the relay was all different distances, and started out with two water barrier laps. brooke did the first, and i did the second. as i was finishing, i handed off to little joe, but it was a bad handoff, and he dropped it. i tried to slow down so i wouldn't run into him, but i stepped off the track and slipped onto the drain along the track. i ended up slamming onto my left leg, compressing my ankle and knee with all my weight on top of the one leg. i rolled around in pain for a bit, then decided i could walk. i jogged around a bit, cheering, and thought i was fine. ran the final 100m of our race-- we won. stretched, and tested out the leg some more. didn't feel great. iced, felt a little better. as the night went on, it felt worse-- just really sore and it stiffened up when i would stay in one place for a while. iced some more that night. frustrating. we'll see.
