it was pretty impressive as my glasses went flying on impact...I hit both knees and my left shoulder which I must have tucked instinctively with my arm going under my body as I smashed the face of my watch (it didn't stop, I stopped it as I lay on the ground wondering what happened!)...I even had a little rock embedded in my 'roo scar...
I eventually picked myself up and walked the rest of the way home...I must concentrate on my feet for the whole run...what a gumby!
the stats:
start temp/humidity: 14.9/100% (apparent temp same)

after a shower and several lots of icing with voltaren applied to what appears to be a cork (just above my right knee on the medial side) I headed off to Federal with tubigrip on both knees to keep the swelling under control...
I played in the #2 spot and had to give my opponent 3 shots...the greens were basically rolled mud (glad it's not my home course) as I struggled to get a feel for the pace (fast!)...at the turn I was three down but I managed to hang on until the finish of the 16th where I ended up losing 3/2...fortunately the team won 3/2...
I walked the boys this morning while street O will be at Yarralumla...will be interesting to see if I can manage to get all 20 without tripping over again!
