Shame about you falling have a rest day and then if you feel ok you can try again. Any lasting pain take a few rest days. Good luck šŸ˜Š

Hopefully itā€™s just flesh wounds... youā€™ll be back very soon. Iā€™d take a couple of days and then, assuming no pains, get back out there. You may even feel better for a couple of days as your legs will be fresh.

Ouchy! I Hope it is just superficial and you will quickly heal. I had a fall on my last run which was a shock and knocked my confidence a little. Take a few rest days, maybe walk a little on your next trip out. If no pain get back to it x
