Toe No

I had my big toe stepped on in a soccer game this weekend. It wasn't bad, in fact I barely feel it today, but it made me realize how important that toe is. The day after the game I was limping around and realized that with each step the ball of your foot/big toe do a lot of work!

X-Games

I watched some X Games this weekend and was really impressed by a few tricks. One of the things I love about these sports is the innovation and invention that goes on. I don't even know if this happens in more traditional "trick" based sports (gymnastics, ice skating), but when you watch the X Games you sometimes get to see tricks that have never been done before. Even I will admit that watching X Games can get a little boring / repetitive, so let me give you the highlights. Matt Hoffman does a no handed 900 in bike vert. Even more visually impressive was Mike Metzger who did back to back backflips on a motorcycle! Wow... that was impressive!
