Colin Jost has taken a trip to the medical tent while covering Olympic surfing in Tahiti.

"You know it's going great when you've been to the Olympic medical tent more than any of the athletes," he wrote in the caption.
But it's not the first feet pic Jost has posted since taking on the role of Olympic surfing correspondent for NBC.
Just three days earlier he shared a snap of his foot with several bloody toes, alongside the caption, "This might ruin my WikiFeet score but I just arrived in Tahiti for the surfing Olympics and the reef was excited to greet me."
Despite his injuries, Jost has been getting on with the job, posting a short clip of his coverage on his social media.

"Here in Tahiti, one of the surfers seems to have a distinct homefield advantage," Jost began as he introduced Kauli Vaast, a competitor born and raised in Tahiti.
'Like Kauli, I grew up in a beautiful, inspiring, tropical Island. Staten Island, the French Polynesia of New York City," Jost continued.

"And while I understand the allure of competing on your home field, I also can see many distractions that may come with it.
"In my own case, nagging, horrible friends and family, clawing at me for constant attention," he joked. "It's like, mum, dad, I'm trying to do Olympics."
On July 8, Scarlett Johansson - who has been married to Jost for four years - joked about how her husband secured his Olympic gig.

"Is that even – how did he get this gig? I just want to know," she said on the Today show. "I'm like, 'Is this a job?
"He loves to surf, we have a place in Montauk, he's always out there surfing... Somehow the dream became a reality and now he's going to be in Tahiti for two weeks. I'm like 'poor you,'" she added as she mimed a tear rolling down her cheek.
"He's working — he's like, 'Poor me, I'm going to be all over the place'," she laughed. "I'm like, 'Are you?' I think if you can have a Pina colada on air while you're working, that's not technically work."
