Had a great run today despite needing some short run breaks. Ambling through the woods just thinking I wouldn't take any more walk breaks on the way back to the car and out of nowhere, tripped over a tree root. Soft mud broke my landing and my glasses were hanging off my nose but otherwise no serious damage done. Muddy skid marks on my legs prove I am a hard core trail runner LOL. Last time I fell I wasn't wearing glasses but that wasn't the reason this time. Need to look where I am going - pretty funny at 52 to come home with a graze and muddy trousers though, don't think I was allowed to do that as a kid

Ouch! What is it with these tree roots? They get everywhere!
Glad you did not suffer too much... trouble is, we don't fall and bounce like we did as children.. Your run sounds wonderful...except for the fall
Big hugx
Lucky it wasn't worse than a few grazes. Unfortunately we have to do our own washing now!!
