Yep! I let out a scream and went flying. At least I was at 32 minutes so I just gave up then!

Hope the bruises (physical and metaphorical) are not too painful!! :) At least you got to 32 minutes first! Feel this is going to be a widespread epidemic with the onset of winter ...

Just noticed all the comments here today! No I'm fine, just a wobble and managed to jump off. Treadmill in the garage so no embarrassments there. Been seeing runners out and about (not many) today and thought they were mad! One man was in his shorts and t shirt! It's freezing here in Scotland! I'll be sticking to the treadmill until at least April!

Re-enacting one of my favourite Bridget Jones moments LOL. Glad you're OK just a bruised ego perhaps?

Owww, hope you didn't hurt yourself. Just a reminder we runners have to do a 'cool down' not a 'fall down' :) Hope it hasn't put you off using the treadmill, take care.

Ouch! It could happen to anyone, I always feel slightly out of control on the treadmill! I do hope you're not too bruised. I agree about the hardiness of some runners - I passed one (I was in the car, ha ha) the other night at quarter to ten, it was perishing cold and totally dark and there she was, running along quite happily. I had to admire her determination!
