Ouch, ouch and ouch to those. My ribs don't appear to be broken, it doesn't hurt when I breath, but for anything else. |

Only once (touch wood, for tonight) when entering a park. Tripped/stumbled over absolutely nothing and went down on the tarmac. Queue quite chuckles and laughter from the teenagers on the bench next to me. Only thing I could do was get up and get on with it. My main thought was that i hoped my watch wasn't damaged for my  (I was fine, obligatory bruised ego only). |

Mr d, i have bruised ribs after a motorcycle accident a couple of weeks back. Get yourself checked in hospital (i rang 111 for advice and they were ace and details were passed on for when i walked in). Takes a long time to recover and i am now having private physio for rotator cuff injury that was obscured by rib pain. |

Thanks FurryH. Managed to do it twice before, however this time even after recovering from the initial winding it was really painful on the side I landed on. The other times the pain arrived the next day and built from there. Being 14 years older probably doesn't help. |

I’ve had the occasional trip, slip or fall on a run. My most spectacular was when I tripped on uneven tarmac in July 2017 while out on what had been planned to be a long run. I landed flat on my face. Didn’t even react quick enough to put my hands out so broke my nose.... I ended up going for a job interview a few days after this photo was taken. I had two lovely black eyes! Surprisingly, I got the job! |
