swittle Aug 2011 1:51pm, 18 Aug 2011 13839 posts	0 swittle Ooo, sore point for me - literally! 5 minutes into my run, I tripped and crashed headlong into the pavement - not 10 yards away from where I'd performed the same stunt 4 or 5 years ago Paving's smooth and even but I don't pick my feet up, almost as if on castors. Grazed knee, elbow & hand & bruised shoulder Was going to return home but the red mist set in and I ran ten more miles, attracting some odd expressions on the way
