Get well soon Shauna!

What a bummer.

On the plus side it's a good excuse to hang off a fingerboard for many hours.

I thought the same thing. Good luck to her with the healing, hope she comes back stronger.

Should watch "Broken Toe" for motivation.

The break was on a normal bouldering mat rather than an indoor mat but still, sad news. She's written about it here http://www.shaunacoxsey.co.uk/?p=515

Bad luck. Breaking stuff is no fun.

Hey Shauna, sorry to hear about this. We ve both done a similar thing at a time when we had just hit form we were happy with and I must say we both came back a lot stronger and more focussed.
All the best with the recovery,
Jordan and Naomi

Having seen some of the landings in these steep mountainside granite bouldering areas, I'm frankly surprised this doesn't happen lot more often.  I  haven't been to Magic Wood, but some of the ones in e.g. Zillertal look well scary.
jawohl!

Saw Shauna last night and she was still training like a beast  :strongbench:.
