Hey softie, it's a bit of an extreme way of getting out of the 100 push-up challenge :rolleyes: Glad you're okay; hope you're better soon :)

:D:DCheers DT. Was one of my first thoughts that (after 'sh1t', and 'ow', and 'wtf have I just done?', natch!). Now I'm thinking my cast on my hand is shaped perfectly for grip on the pull up bar:rolleyes:Quote:

Darling SS,
Pheasants indeed!! I've told you before ''BOTH hands on the WHEEL'', wait 'until you get home;)
Please get well soon, I may need that hand. At least now you don't have to drive a Vauxhall anymore.
Big hugs

Chevrolet? Er, no. Thanks.
Saab? Would love a 93 Sportwagon, but to maintain Saab as their 'premium brand' they don't discount them. (which means on top of company's contribution, I'll end up paying another £300 quid on top)
Which leaves me with Vauxhall, where I can get a fully specced car worth £25k for the equivalent of £16k, and not have to dip too far into my own pocket.
And I'm stuck now with having to get an Insignia hatchback (got a dog you see), which I'm not too keen on as it looks like a cheap Korean car from the back. Though the new estate doesn't look too bad.
Bit stiff and sore this morning?
Sken, I like you an' all, but that's a bit personal, ain't it?:DQuote:

Fair point re company car.
Keep wiggling those fingers:)
so soft lad, how you going with rebuiding the dry stone wall??
Being a southernsoftie, my fair hands have never touched anything like this, and obviously I lack the manly practical skills that would allow me to put it back together, fop and dandy that I am.Quote:

the local farmer more than likeley would do it himself, failing that, i'm sure you will hear from them if he needs to get someone in to do it, why not contact him, ask if they can put a stile in while they are at it:DQuote:

Just booked 10 sessions with the physio for massage (buy 5 get 5 free). Just been in with what I thought was an achilles niggle but it is where the achilles meets the soleus which is the muscle I had trouble with 6 or 7 weeks ago. Plenty of rubbing and a change to my stretch routine and hopefully it will bugger off.
Think I might have torn my calf on tonight's run on Ilkley Moor :eek::( K&C legend Pet Shop Pete walked me down to Bar T'tat and I applied half-gallon of Acorn Porter as initial treatment. Sat feeling folorn at home with big bag of frozen peas on it now :( Fellsman seems a distant dream........
You'll be reet by then mate, i have a real piggin cold, shivers, aches, cough and sh!t, if someone told me to run a mile right now, i'd nose-end them;)Quote:

Thanks Steve! :) Found bottle of Leffe blonde in fridge and wasn't sure how best to apply but used internally ;) Think it's time to dig my Lekis out....Quote:

I've been in a bit of pain today pulled/strained Tensor fasciae latae I think (muscle from top of Femur to Iliac crest) whilst racing the rain on a steep descent yesterday. didn't start hurting though til late last night. Had ice on it today, hopefully it's just a minor injury.
Hope it ain't too bad Ian and that you're back on your feet soonest!Quote:

Well, I went to the physio. yesterday (pelvis very wonky and a sore quad).
Great effect on the above, but now have a very angry ITB.........I soooo want to run tomorrow too.
Will it miraculously heal itself as quickly as it came?
The previous posts on this thread would suggest..........NOT!
Bummer.
Bad news Chugger. Wish I could say it will go quickly, but (painful, frustrating) experience tells me it won't.Quote:

A bad case of Fell Ponies' nipple :eek: What do those people at Ron Hill use to make their vest out of? Wire-wool? Kevlar?? :(
so after being sort of injured for 2 years with a stress fracture of shin then a torn calf i thought i had built myself up to some sort of reasonable fitness - turned up to a race at the weekend and turned my ankle within the first 100m! arh well - what harm can i do running on a sprained ankle????
Got stung by a flying article just below my right eye yesterday while cycling along the canal bank.
I now have an allergic reaction to the sting and it looks like I have done 10 rounds with a heavy weight boxer.
Treatment so far:-
Antihistamine tablets
Anti-inflammatory tablets
Anti-septic eye gel
Iced the area every hour
and the swelling is getting worse.
PS Off to Turkey tomorrow:eek:
"Flying Article" that made me giggle:D
Have a good holiday mate;)
Cheers Merry:)Quote:

Twisted my ankle up at the 12 Apostles on Ilkley Moor last night; a long way home.
That's 3 sprains in just over 2 months. :mad::(
By the time it's not too painful for off-road running again, I'll be off in France (the Tussockmaiden's wedding) so it's goodbye to the fells until September. At least it should give time to rebuild some ankle strength...wonder if I could squeeze a wobbleboard into my suitcase?
I think the old standing on one leg trick is a big help with strengthening damaged ankles Tussockface. Try and get into the habit of doing it when making a cup of tea or washing up etc ;)Quote:

The break will do you good Tussockchops, don't forget to close your eyes when on one leg, hope they have Tussocks to fall on in France.......Le Tussoque perhaps:DQuote:
