Duckworth ‘breaks’ a leg at the gym
Sen. Tammy Duckworth got the last laugh after “breaking” her leg during an intense workout on the rowing machine.
The Illinois Democrat tweeted to her more than 140,000 followers on Thursday:
Just broke my leg rowing — I blame my hardcore pace. Luckily, it no longer hurts to break a leg! pic.twitter.com/slTWGx6sMD
