I had a brush with death 20 years ago doing something similar hiking up a waterfall at Yosemite. My dumbass was wearing some worn out , Converse basketball shoes when I slipped on the slippery rocks. If a friend of mine didn't grab me in time and I was six feet closer to the edge, I would've fell 50 feet to my death.

As for injuries, no broken bones, but I did have my share of running related injuries. Rolled my ankle a thousand times, turf toe, twisted my ankle over a rock while running full speed on a trail :damn: Injury led to six months of Plantar Facit*ts . Trust me, shyt is not the business :to:

2011 I did a marathon in Long Beach. Everything outside the race was bad. Race started Downtown but I booked my hotel near the airport by accident , which was on the other side of town. Plus , I had issues with my license so I couldn't rent the car I booked. I also had a glitch in my checking account so I only had enough for a cab ride downtown to get my race packet. But I had to walk 7 miles back in the dark through East Long Beach to get back to my Hotel, the night before my race.I almost got lost :merchant: but I kept my cool. I found a way to get a cab again to the race start , which was near the same place, but I had to walk back to my hotel in triple digit heat up hills for six miles after I ran 26.2 miles :wow: My feet were on fire for days and I had severe blisters for months. My dumb ass even thought it was a good idea to work a shift at my sales job (which I'm on my feet) , the same day I came back home).



But the medal was :banderas:
:huhldup:

dislocated shoulder twice
2 cracked vertebrae in my neck
pinched nerve
dislocated bone in my wrist and my ankle
severely sprained back
Damn. You an MMA fighter or something?

:huhldup: @ dislocated shoulder though. Back in high school football, my friend was a DE..and he had his shoulder dislocate twice throughout our senior season. Both times an assistant coach popped it back into place. And my friend kept playing. Toughest motherfukker I ever knew.
