What is the oddest way you've been injured?
On Saturday I was running on my treadmill at home watching Football Focus, gradually increasing the speed, when I heard a loud crash and then felt a heavy thud into my right shin. Fortunately I was able to maintain control and keep running so didn't suffer a bad injury just a bump and large graze. I looked behind me and saw my coolbox laying on its side at the back of the treadmill. It was then I remembered that I had put my coolbox onto the front of the machine ( not the running track obviously) a few days earlier when tidying up. The vibrations of my running and getting faster had caused the coolbox to move from the front of the machine and fly towards me at a rate of knots causing said injury.
The question is, how on earth didn't I see it before I started running?!:embarrassed:
