Yeah and I bet you didn't run your best time. You're right anyone can suck it up and get through something if they have to. I ran the 800m with stitches in my right foot and a shoe full of blood. I won the race but was almost 5 seconds off my normal time.

We are talking about 4+ seconds of absolute peak performance. If you think a fractured foot does not affect an athlete's peak performance in something like the 40, you must have practiced landing on your head one too many times while you were in airborne school.
