Hi folks,

I damaged a quad about a month ago and rested for a couple of weeks before injuring it again playing cricket This is really sad

There may be some level of sympathy out there in Cyberspaceland but my misfortune may bring joy to a part of it because there is no way I'm going to be able to run in the Northumberland coastal race on 20th July this year even though I have a number; as far as I'm concerned the first person who wants it that sends me a personal message with an address can have the number for free; I've asked for a medium t-shirt. Enjoy.

That's such a shame to hear thumbs... though take it steady and you'll soon be back on the road. There's been a number of races I've had to miss this year through surgery that I'd been especially looking forward to, but you just have to remember that there's plenty of other races, and there's always next year too!

Without wanting to sound like a miserable fart; regarding your entry, it might be worth contacting the race organisers regarding a number swap with someone - health and safety and all that "what happens if...." :embarrassed:

Sad to hear it, Thumbs Hope it heals up soon

Take care Thumbs... stick to running in future, that cricket is a dangerous game!

That's just taking masochism too far, RS! Looking forward to surgery?! View attachment 542

It got me two weeks off work! Sadly that was about the only positive

I really should read through what I've typed before posting it :embarrassed:

Sorry to hear that Thumbs, hope you get back running soon !!

Who do you play Cricket for and what sort of standard ?

I'm just scraping into a team that didn't win a single game last season. I won't advertise the embarrassment by broadcasting the name of the club.

The voice of reason; ok, I'll do it properly and you DO sound like a miserable fart whether you want to or not

Sounds like you might be a member of the England ODI squad !

Does anyone have any advice on how long I should rest?
