Battered and bruised 😫

[Bettyb719]

On week 3 of Juju’s plan (44 minute run) on Sunday. Doing it for the 2nd time. 40 minutes in, and some women came out of a gate behind me. I thought they were calling to me, turned round a little, and next thing I knew I tripped, fell face first against a high stone wall, then down on elbow and knees to the pavement. Gashed my elbow, grazed knees, and big bump on forehead which has now resulted in two black eyes. A&E confirmed no broken bones or concussion though 🙂. Also, no medical people suggested I shouldn’t be running at my age 🤗. Will be on the couch a wee while though - sore all over!

Ouch - sorry to hear about your adventures - it'll be a good story to tell when you're feeling better!

Poor poor you. Take care and have a speedy recovery.

Thank you! Xxx

[Granspeed Graduate10]

Oh arr. poor you! 😧 What a catastrophic moment. Do hope all the bashing-marks go away soon and that you feel better really soon. At that point you can enjoy making up stories.... Roll on recovery.

Thank you! Xxx

I liked your post for the reason that no one dared say you shouldn't be running! Of course not, in fact we all know more should! 👍🏻😁

Poor you though, sounds horrendous and I can well imagine you must be feeling like you've done 12 rounds with Mike Tyson!

🤞🏻fingers crossed for a speedy recovery!

Thank you - not even my husband dares say I shouldn’t run...😂

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate10 in reply to Bettyb719]

Especially he shouldn't! 👍🏻🤣

You poor thing! Take very good care of yourself, that sounds nasty, and of course you are the perfect age for running. After you've had a bit of a rest.

Thank you! The view from my IC is looking better already!

You do get yourself into some scrapes Mum!!

[Bettyb719 60minGraduate in reply to star3991]

I know...😫

[UnfitNoMore Graduate10]

Ouch! Pamper yourself a bit while on the couch, you deserve it. Hope you’re back soon.

[Bettyb719 60minGraduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Thanks! I am being pampered! Very frustrating looking out at lovely running weather though...

[UnfitNoMore Graduate10 in reply to Bettyb719]

Being pampered is even better! Even better weather soon I think, I like it just a little cooler than it is right now.

[alisonx Graduate10]

Ouch! sounds painful. Thank goodness no broken bones, wishing you a speedy recovery and hope those black eyes don't linger

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10]

Ooh ouch🤕! Hope you’re on the mend soon Bb; in the meantime, make the most of the IC!
