so, after being blasted in the face by an arctic wind, i went indoors to the apartment gym to get a few more miles in. i dismounted the way i usually dismount, before remembering that the stationary bike's pedals had straps. one foot made it out. the other stayed in as i crashed to the ground. not my first bike fall, but my first bike injury. nothing's broken, fortunately, but the foot's sprained, bruised, and swollen.
there's a lot of information about sprained ankles, but not much about sprained feet. how long should something like this keep me off my (real) bike? i'm fine taking a week off, but any more than that worries me because i've just recently started to see some big gains. a doctor would say no, but whatever. will it be okay to go back to pedaling even if there's a little pain left?
