Got out for my first street run in a week this morning- felt so good and was happy as not even a twinge of pain... 1.5km in and had a major wipeout onto gravel... I saw blood and felt so faint and thought there's no way I can continue (I hate blood) so home... lovely grazed knees, hands and elbows and a lovely lump on one of my knees... one of these days I am going to do some serious damage! 😳🙄
I am so flipping clumsy! : Got out for my first... - Couch to 5K
I am so flipping clumsy!

Poor you! Hope it doesn't hurt too much (ice and arnica are very effective) and you'll be soon able to get back out there without thinking about it.
Cheers... I would be alright if it weren't for the blood 🤢 Can't stand blood at all... a bit sore and a bit of a bruised ego but I think I will be alright 😳🙄
Blood is alway impressive (for me, it's looking at someone else's bleeding which makes me feel bad) but usually a sign that the wound is superficial and not too bad. Get well soon! I'm stuck inside today with a bad cold I hope will not turn out to be the flu...
Oh, poor you! Don’t be down on yourself though, it could have happened to any of us. I second the arnica, though I think you have to keep it away from broken skin. It certainly helps bruises; I have a tube of it on hand.
Also be kind to yourself. You are probably in shock.

Thanks... I just feel a bit disappointed x
Dont let it get you down. You will be back out there soon 😊

Give yourself chance to recover, even the slightest if tumbles can be a bit of a shock. You'll be back out there in a day or two x 👍
