On Monday morning I broke my toe. You probably expect some orienteering related story, after all I had just spent a week running through the Canmore forests in preparation for last weekend's Barebones races. But no, it was in the house, walking through a doorway and I let my right foot get too close to the door and the little toe smashed into the narrow end of the door just below the hinge. Blast it!! The next day I came to Whistler where I was looking forward to lots of golf and running and hiking. Uh uh. Luckily I can ride my bike though. And yesterday I found a new trail that runs above the lake by our house here - very nice easy trail. Just perfect for toe rehab. And as a bonus my toe really responds well to the activity as the swelling and pain go down (quite the opposite of what I was expecting).
