Owz it goin folks? I'm two days into my broken leg, with approx six weeks to go and I'm losing it already! I really need to run!
I never normally get time to look on the internet, so when I spotted this forum it raised me spirits!
Have you all had a good run today!!!!:'(sick:

 

[littlered]

My run was fine, ran 5.5k. Went well I think
How did you break your leg?

Welcome to the forum

Football for me today Ken... though not so great since our keeper went off to A&E with a snapped finger we lost another player too because he had to drive him there!...we were 2nd in the league as well!

Welcome to the forum btw...! have a browse around, plenty for you to read in your time off!

Cheers! I got hit by a car on sat night unfortunately. Tried chasing it down the road, running a bit like the huntch back of notre dam!!:lol:
Was the sun shining out there?

Welcome and bad luck with the leg. Settle in and time will fly.

 

[Marathon Fool]

Were you out running when you got hit, or on a drunken night out?

Did you manage to get a number plate?

Hi CP

Welcome to RF, sorry to hear about your leg that cast really will get in the way of your running for a while


I love Cornwall I have seen most of it and eaten mostly my body weight in pasties, cream teas and cornish beer and not forgetting ice cream either plus many other great places to eat, I sound like a right pig

Before your accident how much running was you doing?

TT

I did this once! Was in net and landed on my left hand, spiral fracture through both knuckles on my ring finger - was all bent to one side

Hope your keeper makes a quick recovery

Really sorry to hear about this Ken - pretty brutal! I hope you get well soon - keep us posted...

Hellooo there Couch...

Ouch broken leg, i did that to my left leg on a bouncy castle.... know how you feel

Just programme in Jeremy Kyle

 

[couchpotato]

Thanks for the support folks!
Twas a semi-drunken night out, Marathon Fool! Me mate and I decided we'd had enough and went for a taxi home, thats when I got hit! We got the number plate and it's all in the hands of the police.
Thats one of the reasons I run Twinkle Toes, to burn off all the great cornish food I eat!!:d
Trouble is I've stopped running now, but at he moment my food intake has stayed the same as before the accident!:worried: Unfortunately that was a lot as I was training hard for the Cornish marathon in november! I can feel the pounds piling on right now!!:worried:
I haven't gone insane enough to watch Jeremy Kyle (YET!), Leece, I am watching re-runs of the Simpsons at the moment!! What was quite ironic was saturday night when I was waiting in casualty, they had the Olympic mens marathon playing on the tv!!
I think I would have rather watched Jeremy Kyle at that point!!
Anyway back to the couch! Oh...... I'm already on it!:wacko:
Cheers

Sorry to read the bad news in your post Ken.

I hope you're back up and running asap.

 

[Hrun]

To keep yourself occupied why not start a 118 118 thread.

People can ask you anything and you will find the answer. Should keep you busy googling for a bit

 

[Squint]

No luck Couch, good effort for trying to chase a car, even more so for doing so with a broken leg.

 

[Term]

Welcome Couch!

this forum's a great place to hang out; especially good for keeping you interested in running whilst you're injured. It's a bit like torture though; makes me want to go out for a run!

Hope your leg heals soon

Worse thing was, I had just bought some 'cheesy chips' with chilli sauce, which were goin down a treat, but in my anger I chucked them at the car Not even bloomin close!

 

[Term]

mmmm...chips n cheese.....

Not sure about the chilli sauce though; you should try chips, cheese n coleslaw :happy:

 

[couchpotato]

I'll try that next time I'm allowed out! (could be a while - which is probably best!)

 

[Term]

Nah... you know what they say straight back on the horse. Plus, think of how much more impressive your disco dancing'll be with crutches!

 

[couchpotato]

How come you know about my disco dancin?!:worried:
I don't do that in public!:nuts:
