Indeedy! Amused to find my right arm uniformly grubby from wrist to elbow. Perfect landing.

Break fall works better on foot than on bike

Slipped on some greasy mud this morning, taking a short cut in road shoes. The mud was soft but the ground underneath still rock hard. Ice and elevation coming...

Ouch! Hope it's not too sore for too long.

Yikes, that looks sore.

Lots of falling over going on on Sunday, we were out on the fells supporting my wife's [Bobs] JNLC (Joss Naylor Lakeland Challenge), conditions were flipping horrendous. Quite a few casualties in terms of cuts and bruises, I did a couple of powerslides on my bum coming down the Seatallan descent :-(

Ouch Oranj, that's a good one! Heal well.

Fingers crossed, I have stayed upright for the last 3 weeks!

It should be OK, I'm trusting the magic power of a bag of frozen peas. I won't be doing much pilates for the next few days though.

I feel over a tree root on my run today about 1km in. My arm hurts.
