    Try to answer a mobile phone.

    Before we have the spouting of "what were you carryingone for!!!" my wife was expecting a child and I went off to do an off road marathon! She phoned to say she was bored!

    ...believe your faster, fitter pals when they say "just over the next rise and it's all downhill from there. We should be back in 10minutes..."
    ...there's a hill nearby missing its fool...

    I was 5 miles from the end, but with a short cut back which could have taken me 10 minutes to get to the car. I was ready to leap like a loon through a few fields to the road and hare off in the car!
    The baby didn't come for another three days.

    Run past the queue at a bus stop just as a woman holding a heavy can of paint raises her arm to flag down the bus. Caught me a very sensitive area, must to the amusement of the queue of people, i'm sure!

    well i was only 6 when this happened and playing cricket on a beach in wales.
    i had hit the ball well and a car decided to drive along the wicket to take a short cut, i hit the door as i was charging for the stumps at the other end and hit the car door full on.
    made quite a mess of the car.

    Run through snow covered gorse in shorts

    Decide to cool off on a warm day during an ultramarathon by stuffing snow down your sports bra (obviously applicable to only some forum members) - it works, but I had excruciating muscle pain across my chest for about 2 days afterwards
