Hard Fall
I took a hard fall while running trails at the park this evening - first time I have fallen in a long time. Darn root. I was about a mile into the run and landed on my right knee and hip. Running was painful and I started to take a shortcut back, but went ahead and completed the 4.2-mile loop - slowly. Rather than ice it, I had a cold beer after the run. It feels better now.

Trail running, in my opinion, comes with it the opportunity for a higher risk of injury. With the heavyweight schedule you have this fall/winter, please be careful and don't compromise your quest.
Thanks, Marvin. Maybe I need to stick to the roads. I have paid too many marathon entry fees to be laid up with an injury.
