Twitter claims first Jogging Injury
June 2, 2009 by Nick
Britain saw it’s first case of ‘Twinjury’ when office worker, James Coleman, cracked his head on a heavy low-hanging branch while jogging and responding to a tweet on his Blackberry.
Mr Coleman said he would keep jogging and twittering seperate while he jogs in the future.
“I guess you could say I feel a right Twit,” he said
“One minute I was running along posting a tweet, the next I was lying on my back on the pavement in agony.
“The branch came out of nowhere and hit my face hard.
“I could only see through one eye for a couple of days afterwards, but the swelling has started to go down now.
“I was a laughing stock at the office. I don’t even use Twitter that much to be honest.
“But I certainly won’t be tweeting while running anymore.”
Mr Coleman recorded the accident on Twitter with: “Running to work, very late. Smacked my face against a branch, hurts. Forgot how tall I am. Danger of twittering…”
