Swam four events in a meet yesterday (actually five with the relay they threw me into). It was my first real meet in 22 years. My first event was the 50 ***. I came to the wall on the finish and reached out to get the touch pad. I tagged it and jammed my right index finger. OUCH. Didn't think it was that bad. It was sore, but I made it through my other events. Still sore all night. I iced it a bit last night, but this morning it's very swolen an brused.
This is not the first time I've done something like this. I once broke my foot hitting it on a gutter on a flip turn.
Did I mention I don't have any depth perception? And did I mention that I'm an idiot?
When I was a kid racing at an age-group meet at the famous Santa Clara pool, I was sliding over a lane line in the shallow warm-up pool
when my right nipple got caught and pinched! It was by far the most intense pain ever. I thought that my nipple was gone.
Incredibly embarrassed and shocked by the pain, I wasn't brave enough to even look down to check for a good 5 minutes.
Boy, I'd never been so relieved to see my own nipple.
