ARGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment. All was going well in life - I have just finished my last exam and assignment last weekend. Even managed to squeeze in a triathlon on the previous weekend and I'm looking forward to the xmas break.

So, while working at home today, I decided to take advantage of the perfect Blue Sydney summer and in my lunch hour go for a quick 4Km run from Bronte to Bondi and then cool down with a few laps at the pool at the south side of the beach.

Well, while I was thinking how blue the sea was, how perfect the temperature (22C) , how great it was to be able to run with my super light Apple ipod shuffle (filled with exercise tracks), wham, bam yours truly is going down very painfully on the side of the path pretty much where the photo at the top of this article was taken. I wasn't looking where I was going and to the right of the path there was enough of something sticking out of the ground for me to catch my foot on and over my ankle goes, with a full set of cuts and grazes to match - Do I feel like a child again! Hobbling to the pool I do a bit of swimming to let the salt water wash away some of the dirt and I don't feel to bad. Anyways, after returning back to the home office and working away for a good few hours I decide I should eat around 7pm and find that I can hardly walk! My ankle has ballooned up so I spent the rest of the evening foot up with a plastic bag of ice cubes strapped to my ankle watching some crap Australian tv....

Not sure if I'm going to be able to make the office xmas party tomorrow at the Yacht club near Spit Bridge. I've organised a full weekend of entertainment. Saturday morning, run/bike training at Centennial Park, brunch at the Swell, Bronte, watching the new James Bond film in the afternoon, dinner at Restaurant Balzac and Sunday a wedding of Jean Manuel and Barbara at McKell park on Sunday. ARGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
