During my 3 mile "easy" run on Tuesday I wiped out on the sidewalk. I usually run a different route where I run on the street but in the pursuit of a more shady route I changed it up. As I ran down Main Street, I see an old lady with a cane walking. I was thinking, "I hope I don't scare her by coming up so quickly from behind, poor old lady looks like she can't even turn around." Then splat! Apparently she couldn't turn around because she didn't look to see what the THUD was behind her (thud being the sound my body made hitting the sidewalk). Bloody knees and all I completed my run even though I was injured at 0.5 miles into the run.
I definitely sprained my wrist too. So today I'm walking in my same running sneakers and I fell AGAIN! Reopened the scab on my knee. This time I fell while carrying my 21 month old baby. Took me a little time to check on myself and baby. She was totally fine since I took the brunt of the fall.
I feel really beat up right now. Pretty sure I'm throwing out the sneakers.
