through the air.
that's me.
I keep Wiping out!!!
Darned ice.
I headed out for a short Christmas run yesterday and wham! Right in my driveway. Flat on my butt. I also hit my knee and it is SO sore and swollen and bruised. Very nice.
Today, I flew again. I was 1 mile into a 6 mile trek. I landed Hard on my ass again and it shook my whole brain. I'm sure I looked like a crazy cartoon character.
Despite my pain, I ran on. I had to focus on each and every step on my icy roads.
Ahh, winter in Maine.
Ouch! Ange I don't know how you get up. I'd be done for after the first fall. No blood this time? :)
ReplyDelete2 words - yak traxx.
ReplyDeletei just got some. google them. a good investment if you want to run in snow and ice.
Yes, Santa brought me Snowshoes (which we don't use much in Chicago b/c well, it is SO icey/cold here and busy!)....AND (yes, Judi!) Yak Traxx too! LOVE THEM! Be safe!
ReplyDeletejust googled them...cool. They don't hurt your feet when you run?
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to look into these!
ange, go to your local hardware store, by the shortest (1/4 inch) sheetmetal screws. drill a small pilot hole (2 in front, 2 in back) of your shoes and thread them in. u wont even feel them, but on heal strike and toe off, they offer just enough purchase to keep from slipping.
