10km Mountain run last night. Cold crisp air, and a relatively clear trail. Came around a corner and hit a massive patch of ice. both legs bent outwards at the knees a la Bambi. This bloody hurt, so I lost concentration and went over the edge of the path. Did'nt fall far (1m?), but I landed in a pile of rocks. Smashed the bracket of my headlight, and bruised everything. Jogged the 4km remaining km home, with sore knees and a pathetic dangly light. Feel shite today.
TBH I've been tempting fate with these runs anyway, and it could have bee soooo much worse.
