That’s a real shame. Is it the broken elbow by any chance?

Scaphoid fracture. Classic FOOSH injury

ETA: A Brummy lecturer told us a good way to remember a couple of hand bones but only works with a Brummy/West Mids accent. Trapezium under the thumb, Trapezoid just insoid. Clearly worked.

That’s a real bummer

That’s how I was taught.

Along with some lovers try positions that they can’t handle

I vaguely remember a mnemonic that started “she likes to…” and went downhill from there (scaphoid, lunate, triquetral??.. It’s been a long time)

Yeah there is that one too :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Do we run a book on how far into the run he is leading until he implodes? I think I find it admirable and frustrating in equal measure that he seems only interested in winning and doing that from the front.

Seen on Strava that Gustav Iden and KB are there as well. Hope Ali is sensible, follow Frodeno’s example in Roth and pull out of the run

And the Lion

KB did a nice swim set, 10 * 50 off 40s, 10 * 100 of 80s, 10 * 50 off 40s - Impressive

Some good swimmers in the men’s field I wonder if they can create a gap in 2km?

Just set these races to record on Eurosport.

Got round to watching the Hamburg mixed relay yesterday. Really good racing again and a GB win from what looks like a B team. Sian Rainsley is a quality athlete

Kind of given up on AB. He just can’t seem to put a training block then race together.

Tri 247 says if he wants a shot at Kona 22 he needs to Q, with the last chances Kalmar and Tremblant. Can’t see it happening.
