    Meeklo! - Quick update. I've broke my hip - big ass fracture at the neck of the femur. That now has 3 4" nails in it (as they call them).

    I'm a bowl skater and can only think that running helped crack open a previous injury.

    I was up to 40 miles a month (great achievement from 0 miles a month). I felt a snag in my right thigh which was pretty painful but carried on and finished my 5 miles limping a bit. Rested 3 days and ran 4 miles when i had to stop - pain was too much.

    I walked 2 weeks on a broken hip as 2 visits to the Docs resulted in me being told it was torn quad muscles. The pain felt like "bone" so drove myself to the Hospital and demanded an X-ray. Within a few hours i was hooked up on morphine and operated on soon after.

    6 weeks off work to heal. Told i'd never run or skate again. We'll see.
