    Shanaber - hope you are okay, I fell in the street over my own 2 feet about 2 months ago. I was just thankful it was dark and people didn't see me LOL I had to laugh though because my first thought was to stop my watch until I got up and took inventory of my body before starting to run again! I knew at that minute I was a runner LOL
    I had to laugh at this!
    Once I got the dog off me (he was very upset and worried) the first thing I did was stop my watch and that was when I saw the blood on my hands! I rinsed off in the drinking fountain and we ran the rest of our run home... yes we are most definitely runners although I sometimes still can't quite believe I really am :D

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who does these things! I ran the rest of the way in the dark (it was early morning) but i would feel the blood running down my arm and all I could think was boy and I'm gonna be pissed off if blood is getting on my good running pants LOL

    Made me laugh again! I tore a hole in my new running pants and was really upset. I washed them anyway and decided the hole isn't 'that' big :D next time I wear them tho I may decided they have to go!

    Congratulations on your long runs by the way 9.5 miles!! WhooHoo - that is awesome!

    You girls are a riot! :smiley: Be careful deciding it's only a little hole. Those little holes have a nasty habit of becoming embarrassingly revealing big holes when you least expect it. We need not discuss how I know this. :blush:
