ROSA KHUTOR, Russia (Reuters) - Canada's Mark McMorris will ride through the pain barrier when he competes in the snowboard slopestyle in Sochi after sustaining a broken rib at the X Games 10 days ago.
"It's still broken, it's going to be painful and I'm going to have to ride through the pain but just to get a shot at trying to do what I want to do is an important thing," McMorris told reporters after the second day of training at the Rosa Khutor Extreme course.
