Mystery Injury

This week since I haven't been able to run I have been doing this 20 minute circuit routine prior to taking Sydney to school.  The initial part of this involves about 5 minutes of jump roping.  Yesterday I woke up and my foot felt a little sore.  Like it had a minor bruise on it.  I paid it little attention and did my circuit routine as usual.  This morning I was woken up by the stupid dog wining because she needed to go out at about 4:30am.  The first step I took out of bed I felt a surge of pain in my foot.  Whatever it was that was wrong had gotten a lot worse.  I can barely walk.  I have a feeling this may be related to the jump roping.  Although I don't ever recall hearing about people getting injured doing that.  I honestly don't know how this happened or what exactly is wrong.  Seems to hurt the most when my big toe bends in any way, which is pretty much all the time.  Driving to work in traffic this morning was brutal.  At work today I have been stepping on an ice pack I brought from home.  I wish I had brought 3.  I keep melting this one.  If this still feels terrible on Friday night I might go to urgent care just to make sure I haven't broken something.  Right now my money is on tendon/muscle pull.  Good times.

Wow, that looks complicated.
