And I fell. And fell hard!
I learned a few things as I lay on the ground:
- Thank goodness I put the loop of Misty's leash through a belt. If she was in my hand, i might have been hurt worse.
- My poor knees. My right kneecap is still hurting.
- I don't know how the hell I fell, but I DO know that it was hard and fast
- I bent my fingers back, and must have snapped my head back as I hit the ground.
I left work early that day because my beck was killing me.
The next morning I woke up and could hardly move!
I went to the chiropractor. Yes. I gave myself whiplash.
This is not the first time I've fallen so hard that I've injured myself. A few years ago I fell in a parking lot and busted by face.
I hate to say it, but I've not been out for a long walk or a run since. I'm a little scared to. Thankfully after this weekend I don't have another race to train for. I can focus on inside workouts that have a soft carpet for me to fall on.
