A guy that I ran with this morning mentioned this painful clip - he and I both ran the North Face Bear Mountain half marathon this year, and this clip is of the ultimate winner (in second place at this point in the race) of the NF Bear Mountain 50M, Jordan Macdougal.

Endless trails
Ouch is right. My biggest fear out on the trail is slamming my head on rocks like that.
He recovered well, and he knows how to fall!
Ouch indeed!
Faster Than Your Couch!
Ouch - I can relate. I fell like this twice, once in a race (Hyner, into the ravine), and once down a steep, frozen trail (felt like a waterfall). Both times emerged unharmed, apart from a few scratches and bruises - knocking on wood.
Run for fun.
