I woke up early to get in some miles because I have to work late today.  The only eventful thing that happened was that I fell right at the end of mile 2.  I must have tripped over the curb or a crack or something.  It was one of those times where I thought I had saved myself, at least until I found myself sprawled out in the street.  I can feel the bruises forming, but at least my clothes saved me from getting too scraped up :)

Luckily no one saw.

Are you sure it was a curb or a crack? Are you sure it wasn't nothing?

Just kidding, glad you are ok. I trip all the time.

It is never fun to fall, especially when we get older. We don't bounce as well. :) But if you have to biff it, it is always good to do it when nobody is around. :). Glad you are ok.

Pretty creepy, Burt. Pretty creepy.

Everyone else--thanks for commiserating. No real harm done :)
