Holy fucking jesus that looks like hell. Remember "RICE", seriously take care of your injury so it does not haunt you.

Fuck, that blows! Enjoy the meds, I guess? Hope you don't need surgery, dude :(

doesn't look like it. Turns out the break is fairly minor, hopefully I'll be running around again in 8 weeks or so.

The xray wasn't very impressive, you can't actually see the break really. The bone didn't snap, a chunk of it just broke off. So I have a bone chip floating in my ankle now I guess.

My mutant healing factor kicked in pretty fast, I'm walking reliably now after 4 weeks, still wear the giant boot when im outdoors though. Swelling still fairly thick around the area of the break but I expect to be doing light jogging again in another 4-6 weeks.

Summer sports outlook: promising :) Winter sports outlook: sad retrospect :(
