Did something silly last night

I used to be a good gymnast as a child. I had a couple of drinks last night and was dancing and decided to do the splits. To my delight, in my fifties I was very excited I could still do this, danced a little more and did the splits again.

The top of my inner thighs are really quite painful upon waking this morning and I’m worried I’ve done myself an injury.

Will this just right itself over a few days? Currently sat with hot water bottle between my thighs.

These have REALLY made me laugh. Especially the pole dancing on a gritted lamppost in York 😂

Apparently my new party trick is performing an interpretative dance on a pool table and stripping off my trainer socks in a seductive manner.
Discovered this was the case at our Christmas staff party - at my new job. It was the ‘after party’ so not everybody was there, but the video evidence was shared with the boss 😳
Luckily everyone found it funny - I think. Aaargh.
No injuries occurred except a massive bruise on my knee - possibly where I climbed into the table… who knows!

Sorry to hear about the aftermath of your splits OP. Bloody impressive and I hope you feel better soon. I had a moment of showing off at a Christmas Event a few years ago. The entertainer was singing The 12 days of Christmas which involved audience participation. On the 10 Lords a leaping bit, he mimed Russian dancing -think crossed arms and alternate legs out to the front. Well, I used to be a dancer many years ago-I’m in my fifties now, and decided to go full Cossack! I folded my arms in front of me and repeatedly squatted then jumped up and stretched my leg out. I did it many times egged on by all my friends clapping and cheering. Next day I couldn’t walk!!
