And the color is...Mountaineer Blue

On Saturday evening, we were enjoying a game of ultimate frisbee- the young adults (20s & 30s) vs the high schoolers from our church. Trent was diving for the frisbee when his arm collided with someone's leg.

A trip to the ER revealed a couple brakes & yielded this temporary cast.

Today he saw an orthopedic surgeon & was quite thankful to learn that the bones, although broken, were still lined up and didn't need set. So, he'll be in this cast for 4 weeks then a lower arm cast for a couple weeks after that. He did contemplate a bright yellow cast for "Mountaineer Gold" and since Hudson is obsessed with yellow, but blue won out.


He had signed up for his first triathlon about 1 hour before he broke his arm. It's in 3 weeks. We also have a 5k we'd both signed up for this Thursday with a handful of friends. What a bummer!
