8 Bloody Miles

No, I'm not English.  I managed to trip over some uneven concrete and fall last night.  I feel directly on my hand, then shoulder and knee.  As I laid on the ground in the dark, I slowly rolled over and tested the movement in my wrist and fingers praying I hadn't broken anything.  Once full movement was confirmed I stood up, checked my knee and should, and walked to a lighted area.  I looked down at my and to see a nice section of skin missing and blood running down my hand.  The pain was pretty severe, but there wasn't anything I could do about it but finish my run.
