Day 101

1931.7
23.4

We were four miles into the day when I tripped and rolled my ankle really bad. It popped very loudly and hurt really bad.... I ended up on the ground. I called to Emily because I wasn't sure if I was getting up any time soon. Took some advil, put my shoe back on, got my pack back on and continued. Very slowly. We stopped two miles later at a lake to ice it as best we could and took our 10 o'clock break. It was very swollen.  Poor ankle.  Still able to walk OK  so I continued and still made it 23 miles. We'll see how it is in the morning, At least there are plenty of roads back through here so I'm not far from a trail exit if I end up needing it. I think I'll be okay though. I've done gymnastics on similar ankle pain and walking is easier than that.

Once, back in gymnastics, someone told me I could be a foot model.

I really like the old markers.
