Notes on the experience: It had just got done raining, I decide to practice Parkour. I was running, and noticed a water pump, I believe, with a wall and rail directly near it. I jumped on the water pump, slipped, tried catching the wall near with my foot, and slipped on it also, falling on my butt. It knocked the breath out of me, made gasses release both sides of me [Farted and burped uncontrollably], and hurt my Upper inner thighs. Just a tip, be careful when training Parkour in a wet area.
Earlier today, [February 6th, 2010] I was vaulting over a bench, and I kicked backwards a bit. The kick went to far, and kicked my sore butt and upper inner thighs. Now I can barely handle sitting down, running, or better yet Parkour, without pain. Hopefully it will wear off soon.
