Health, Dogs, Break-ups and Animals: Running

Running

Today, I completed my 6-month training program for a track competition this weekend. I went to the park to run anyways because I needed some air after my boyfriend broke up with me. After one lap, my neighbor's 130 lb dog ran across the soccer field and jumped on me to say hi. My leg is broken. FML

Today, after training for 3 months for a marathon, three weeks from race day I tripped and fell during my last long run and cracked a rib, so I took ten painful days off. I decided to go try a short run to see if maybe I could still try the race, and got attacked by a German Shepard. FML

Today, I decided to start jogging and exercising, so I had a wonderful workout before work. Then I broke my foot at work. Goodbye exercising. FML

Today, after months of grueling training and countless early mornings, I finally began the race I had been preparing for over the past year, only to slip and break my leg in the first 450 meters. FML

Today, I decided to begin jogging since my weight was getting a little out of control and I wanted to do something about it. Guess who tripped on a root and broke their ankle? Yeah. Exactly. FML

Today, while on my run, I was attacked by my neighbor's new dog. It apparently didn't like me running past their house and broke free from its chain. I now have stitches and was just told that I'm probably being taken to court for the emotional distress I caused her and the dog. FML

Today, while on a run off campus with my german shepherd, I tried to impress a couple of hot fraternity guys playing football outside of their house. I broke out into a full sprint. I then got tangled in my dog's leash and fell straight in to a parked jeep knocking myself unconscious. FML

Jogging is bad for you

Today, I was running with my sister's dog. It had the brilliant idea of shooting between my legs and I immediately faceplanted on the cement. I now have a swollen nose and cuts all over my body. I'm a grown man who does martial arts and I got beat up by a dog the size of a baby. FML

Today, after spending two hard months losing 20 pounds of my 80 pound goal, I was actually excited to exercise. After I was done exercising, I fell down the stairs and broke my ankle. FML

I train as well like you do, I run a lot, I recently cracked 2 ribs a day before a karate belt grading, I had to go through it anyway since I paid and it was just pure agony. Obviously this is nothing compared to your FML. The first FML to actually make me say "shit" out loud when reading the last line, ever, I really feel bad for you. Good luck. I won't even bother with #1's comment about suing her neighbour. No need for the shitstorm that was started last time.

A 130 lbs dog is pretty big, bigger than a lot of women (especially runners). It probably got a running start and bowled her over while she was running around the track. It's easy to believe a dog that size could break a leg like it was nothing. OP, I'm sorry, that really blows. I hope your leg gets better soon.

The fact that your leg got broken, which must be painful as ****, and the fact that your track meet was tomorrow, both suck the mighty suck. Good luck on the recovery. It's easier to recover from muscle atrophy than it is to build new muscle, so the time taken to get back into shape might not be as ludicrously long as some people make it out to be.

130lbs is not small, that's a big ass dog. Not to mention the fact that it was running towards the OP, dogs can run pretty freakin fast. To OP: That really sucks, I wish you a speedy recovery.

oh and number 34, don't speak what you don't know... is it right for her to sue him? not that I can agree with (dont shit where you sleep) however if she cared to, ironically the case would have a pretty firm leg to stand on (lol sorry) especially a dog that size, no matter where she lives. However, suing for the training would NOT be it, not sure what you even mean by that because it doesn't even make sense. Inflicting PHYSICAL INJURY through negligence would have been the way I went (which you even said, what her neighbor did IS negligence asswipe) but you've already said training (wtf?) and now we all know you're fucktarded.
