During this morning’s box jumps, on the second-last rep of the last set, I didn’t jump quite high enough and stubbed my left big toe on the edge of the step . . . Insert expletive here.

Fortunately, nothing’s broken or cracked; just sore. I’m hoping this goes away in a day or two. This afternoon’s push-ups were a bit fun with an angry toe . . .
