So I'm jogging along a sidewalk in Panama City Beach. Enjoying the sights as spring break is wrapping up if you know what I mean. A bike comes down the sidewalk and I try to be nice and move off to allow them to pass. As I step off the sidewalk and into a hole that was concealed by the grass I hear a pop....or 2 as my ankle turns outward.
My ankle swells to the size of a softball that evening and the wife talks me into going to the ER. Long story short I get a few x-rays, Dr. says it's not broken but would like me to wear an air cast for 2 days....yeah right.
I think if I would have just said 'no' I would have been fine. But I said 'can't that's the foot I shift with.' Dr. says what?!? I told him I ride a motorcycle every chance I get, I've been on vacation for a week and the first thing I'm going to do when I get home is get on the bike and go! Dr. starts to get a little upset because he doesn't like my reasoning. I asked him if he rode. He says no. I tell him if he doesn't ride, then he couldn't possibly understand and I'd just save my breath.
So here I am at work, bike is in the parking lot, ankle is throbbing, and I couldn't be happier
