A grandad who ran the father's race for his granddaughter’s sports day fractured his arm after he tripped at the finish line - but says it was all in "good spirit".
James Kewley, 46, had promised to run in the race after his five-year-old granddaughter, Ella, begged him to take part on June 16 2023.
Little Ella won all her races, as did her mum, Georgia Kewley, 25, and James was hoping to do the same when it was his turn.
James was running well until he tripped on a bump in the grass, falling on his face and crushing his left arm underneath him.
The owner of a construction company said he went straight back to work despite his arm being “twice the size”.
He visited Malton Community Hospital, North Yorkshire, who told him the injury looks like a fracture.
James is due to go back on Monday for an x-ray to confirm the injury.
James, from Malton, North Yorkshire, said: “The grass was so dry. I must have hit a bump and I crushed my arm.
