Event 7 "Up and Over" The gymnastic rings were noticeably higher than they were for the 2021 Games and for that I was very grateful 🙏! On the fifth jump over the 50" wooden log I rolled my ankle pretty good by landing like an unathletic idiot. I stopped for an extra second to compose myself then kept going and didn't even think about it for the rest of the event. It was only when I was halfway back to the athlete locker room I could feel it was a bit sore and remembered that it even happened. I went to the awesome CrossFit Medical Team where they taped it up. The evening workout was announced as Echo Bike and handstand pushups so I was relieved I wouldn't have any problems with those movements. Saturday morning it actually felt way better than Friday night and there was not any visible bruising and just the smallest bit of swelling. I still taped it Saturday but it had no impact whatsoever on my performance, and by Sunday I didn't tape it. In fact, the sprinting in 'Hat Trick' felt really good. Anyway, I figured I would bring this up because I obviously had a taped ankle during the swim event. And I was lucky that it really didn't change my weekend at all! If we had to do a massive run or a bunch of jumping on Friday night it would’ve hurt. Just something that happened and I know plenty of little speedbumps like this happen to every athlete at a competition. Thought it'd be a cool little story to share. Here is a boring list of other things that happened to my body that did not affect my performance: -I grabbed a hand rail and got a cut on my palm from a sharp end of a zip tie, almost deep enough to draw blood but not quite 🩸 -I had a rash on my forearms and ears from the heavy sandbags 🩹 -Got a pretty nasty bruise on my wrist bone from sliding my hand underneath the sandbag along the floor 🫲 -I had a little scratch on the side of both knees from jumping over the log 🦵 -I almost got a blister on the side of my big toe from the Capitol run 🦶 -There was an ingrown hair on my hip right on my underwear line that was incredibly irritating 😠 So yeah, you wanted in-depth recaps, you got it bucko #oversharing #crossfit #crossfitgames Photo @webbge 📸
