As some of you will know I had an 'incident ' on my wednesday run but all is well now. I went out today ran a route I haven't done in a few months , really enjoyed it and its sunny what's not to like. Got to just before the end of my run and down I went. Nothing there to trip me up , just fell. I got up quicker than I fell down as you do to look and see if anybody saw you and thankfully no one around.

Only got grazed hands that stung like mad when washing.

Please can the running gods give me a break🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Have a great weekend 👍

Oh no that’s not good. You won’t be able to wash the dishes, someone else will have to do them 🥳😁.

Sorry about your fall this morning on a otherwise good run, just take it easy for the rest of the weekend, I hope you recover quickly perhaps for another run sometime next week.

Oh dear, that's horrible I know how you feel . . . I remember when I have fallen in the past being most upset about the tears in my running gear, still if that's the only damage we should be grateful I guess 😊

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toorangeguy

That was the first thing I did was look at my knees, thankfully no holes. What are we like 🤣🤣

orangeguy profile image
orangeguyGraduate10 in reply toBuddy34

Yes that a disaster, a hole in the knees in running tights, not something that's really possible to repair either, been there 😒

Oh dear Buddy. I hope there isn't going to be a trio of "incidents" to round this week off for you. I think the first two have been more than your fair share. Here's to an incident-free run next. 😊🏃‍♀️

Sorry to see this! 👀 😆

No, I didn't really see you fall!

I fell over when my foot went down a blind pothole covered by grass and sprained my ankle, while walking! I went down like a sack of spuds!😆 wondering who may have seen me go down, I felt a bit of a Charlie,but I was the only one laughing at my predicament, then the pain came on.. 😫

So, am sorry you hit the dust, hopefully the stinging is wearing off from the grazes by now and you'll be back soon for your next run.. 😉

Buddy34Graduate10 in reply todavelinks

At least you actually had something to fall down. When I looked down to see what had caused me to fall all I seen were my own 2 feet🤣🤣🤣

Oh no Buddy34 ??? Whats going on?? Have a few days off and try again...obviously use your grazed hands as an excuse to take things easy...hugs to you x

Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toMummycav

Oh no Mummycav no days off well apart from tomorrow. I'm supposed to be running a HM distance on sunday. 😉😉

Blimey, tough week this week for you. Hope you’re ok, and that next week is more straightforward 👍😁

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toWenderwoo

Can't complain really Wenderwoo I've done not bad to have ran for 19 months without anything stopping me. 😊

How are you 😊

Wenderwoo profile image
Wenderwoo in reply toBuddy34

I’m ok thanks. I haven’t been posting on here quite simply as I’m not running due to shielding advice. I look at the alerts from people I’m following and either like or comment, but don’t hang around as it just makes me more gutted that I can’t join my VRBs! But I’ve been sneaking out for a 30 minute walk daily for the past fortnight as there hasn’t been many people about and it gives a lift mentally. You’ve come so far in those 19 months - well done 😁. Hopefully it won’t be too long before I start C25K again, I’m looking forward to it 😊😘

Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toWenderwoo

Glad you're getting out for a walk. I know it's not running but just to get outside for a while can really help😊

Oh no! Glad you came out reasonably unscathed. I think you need to keep your eyes open for all possible trip hazards on Sunday 😉 and fingers crossed for an incident free run!!!

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toMum22boys

That's the worst bit there was nothing to trip over🤣

Ouch, poor you, I did that a few weeks ago, in front of a family of 4 who pretended they hadnt seen me 🤣 here's hoping your next run is an uneventful happy run 🤗

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toGrannyhugs

It wasn't even justified, there was nothing for me to fall over🤣🤣

So sorry to hear about your fall Buddy, I hope you’re hands are feeling a bit better by now! May the running gods be with you next time out!

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toOldgirlruns

Hands are fine thanks. Just the shock of how fast you go down when running 🤣

Oldgirlruns profile image
OldgirlrunsGraduate10 in reply toBuddy34

I know how you feel - I slipped on the ice last year and couldn’t believe how fast it all happened!

Liking your post seems inappropriate but the Facebook option of care isn’t available on here! Glad you weren’t too badly hurt....please can the running gods look after you better. Stingy grazed hands reminds me of being a kid and coming off my bike....hope you haven’t got knees to match xx

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toSparkey5000

🤣🤣no the knees are fine

Rowers profile image
RowersGraduate10

If it's any consolation, the only time so far I've fallen when running I didn't slip or trip either, I just went over. I'm going to blame my slightly dodgy ankles which "turn" even when i walk sometimes! I was more upset about how dirty I was and having to walk back into town covered in mud!

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toRowers

Sorry Rowers , the thought of you walking through town covered in mud .

I did laugh 😊

sigasigaGraduate10

Ouch! I fell 2 weeks and got grazes on my hands (and knees, arm, shoulder and hip - did a thorough job!), a couple of which are still painful. At least you can still run with sore hands... Have a safe run next time 😊

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply tosigasiga

Nothing as bad as your fall , just the hands😊

I did that fall - up thing too once and jogged to behind a hedge to feel sorry for myself!! Hope it’s not out you off. I was tentative for the next few runs.

Definitely not put me off Sybilw 😊

Oh no what a shame. Hope your grazes have improved. Good luck on running your HM distance. That’s some achievement in 19 months 💪🏼🏃🏽‍♀️

Hey Buddy it’s not your week, sorry to hear of your fall, falls are horrid aren’t they? because they just happen one second you are gaily running along and the next you are sore and wondering what happened.

Enjoy your rest day today and run tomorrow

Buddy34 profile image
Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toSueAppleRun

Hands are now fine, it's the speed you go down at that give you a shock. Buy thankfully no harm done 😊

How you both doing ?

SueAppleRun profile image
SueAppleRunGraduate1060minGraduate in reply toBuddy34

Yes, i remember my sister coming back from a run with my very dad looking dog, the dog darted in front ho her and she just somersaulted over the top of the dog and i bet she yelled at her

We are great thanks, lovely run this morning and about to lower myself into a very full very hot bath

Buddy34Graduate10 in reply toSueAppleRun
