What's it all about then?? I've climbed and bouldered for 18 years and never done a major injury. Knocked out once, spained the odd ankle / wrist but no fractures / lacerations or suchlike. This is despite being fully mad in years gone by...
This year I decide to buy a MTB, get a bit fit, stop the fags, burn a few cals etc....
ace sport - even though I'm, at no more than v.diff level, BUT - bloody hell I've had bruises galore, a puss ooozing leg wound that took 3 weeks, daily dressings, and 2 courses of antibiotcs, various small holes in the hands and arma and now have had to have stitches in my hand for a well depp gash when I was simply changing the pedals !!! ( spanner slipped under force, hand then Punched into edge of chain ring very hard - very painful, needed gas and air in A & E )
do you get a finite measure of luck for sporting activities? Is mine all gone? can I have some of yours!
