My First Trail Running Accident

So i was out for a trail run today, Doing the lost lake/tin pants trails, and was feeling pretty good. I was running downhill on one of the double track ski trails we often did hill repeats on in the summer, when next thing i know, i am flying through the air headed straight for a rock. I don't think i slipped, but as it was starting to get a bit dark so i probably stubbed my foot on something. I went crashing into the ground face first. I had just experienced my first Trail running crash. I have crashed many time on my Mountain bike, while skiing etc, but this is the first time i can remember crashing while running. I once read an article that talked about training how to fall while trail running. It even had some drills to try. Maybe i should go find that article again and study up.

Anyways, I currently have 2 scraped palms, and 2 damaged knees, one sore shoulder, and a scrape on my right temple where i hit my head and a bit of a headache. Somehow i also cut open the back of my hand and it would not stop bleeding for over an hour. It's funny how different parts of the body hurt at different times. I was able to walk/run out from the trails and my hands were killing, by the time i got home, my knees were the worse, and right now it's the headache. I should be fine though, I will probably still go for another run tomorrow.
