Busy busy track and a fall☹️

What an eventful run this morning was. As my road into the village is currently closed due to roadworks in the village I decided to run out of the village on one of my old routes thinking it would be quiet 🤣🤣🤣well it was a Big mistake. It was rather busy with tractors and trailers and cars using this as a quick track to miss the mayhem in the village. So I was on and off the road and of course I missed my step on one occasion and fell onto the road. Grazed hands and knees☹️☹️☹️I sat a minute and then got up had a little walk and then started running again. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Back home now after a much shorter run but I suppose it was a run (of sorts) It’s my second fall recently as I fell playing Pickleball on Tuesday evening so I really must be very careful the next few days🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh gosh...I am glad it was not too serious... and that you feel okay. Yes.. tractors and traffic when there are diversions can mean real issues.

Take care you ! x

Thanks OF. Yes it’s a bit of a nightmare here they’re building a ring road and it’s causing chaos everywhere. Might wait til Sunday for my next outing might be quieter 🤣🤣
