Several people have been concerned over the lack of posts over the past few days. I didn't want to bring this up but will share this nevertheless.
Last Wednesday while completing a 5K training run, I was hit from behind by a motorized scooter. This happened near the KGO Television Building. According to observers, the collision had me flying about 10 feet forward and hard to the ground face first.
This wrestling fan suffered a couple of facial cuts on the right side, a couple of scrapes on the right knee and a lot of soreness on both hands trying to break the fall.
It ended up being a trip to the hospital overnight to make sure that there was no concussion. Fortunately, I'm recovering okay but slowly.
The person on the scooter did not stop and kept traveling south on the Embarcadero. There were two onlookers that got a cell phone pic of the assailant. It was someone on a lime green scooter which is owned by Lime here in San Francisco.
I filled out a police report with the San Francisco Police Department since this person was illegally not supposed to be on the sidewalk with the scooter. The scooters have a warning on them that they are not supposed to ride on a sidewalk. On top of this, parallel to the sidewalk was a bike lane which the person was supposed to ride on. I'm told that through GPS findings, they will be able to find the suspect.
In the meantime, I'm okay and haven't had any ill effects. Been able to go out and walk roughly a mile each day with no problem. And yes, I still plan to visit the Philippines in two weeks!
