Runner bites it on live TV

[gummybear]

First off, she's OK.
This had me cackling. Something about the way they were cooly describing the snow as ideal, as if they were experienced runners from Wisconsin or something. Then, BOOM. LOL.

All my portland friends (I grew up there) were posting this on Facebook last night. Hilarious!

[melmel48]

So funny! but ouch!

[clseale]

I might go to hell, but that was hilarious! "It's really just the perfect texture. It's so ideal..." BOOM! Ass busted! Lol

[G22]

LOL I feel I can laugh as I bite the dust and fell while running in the snow yesterday. Hers definitely looks more painful than mine.

It looks like they are the Nike flash jackets. They're something crazy like $400.

Lol. I saw a version on sale at Dick's for around $275 I think? The one she is wearing appears to be this one:

The first time I saw them was at the Chicago marathon expo, & they were around $400-$500. Idk, it's crazy expensive. Maybe they are sewn with platinum.

I just saw this on FB. I laughed, hard.
Which probably means it will snow next weekend, and I will also bite it.

The fact that she is wearing a jacket that costs $400 makes me laugh even harder. Probably because I am jealous.

I was so expecting to fall on my run today, because KARMA. I took it extra slow on the snow and ice patches.

ETA: And she's a good sport!!

First, I'm sorry for her because it can hurt to fall like that. But seriously, it's wicked funny.

I feel like she was so dismissive of the snow & not respecting the slick factor at all. Like she almost had it coming. Karma, I tell ya.

And.. I just couldn't run in a $400 jacket. Looks nice, but I think I'd hate myself. I couldn't spend that on any single article of clothing.,

[archaeominx]

lol, what a fool! She totally jinxed herself.

[jchokie79]

OMG, the fall looked so painful! I love her attitude through all of this.
