A woman's hilarious tumble became the talk of her child's <a href="https://vt.co/news/us/high-school-student-twerking-dancing-video-principal-scholarship">school</a> after she took part in her daughter's school sports day. Now, if your child managed to convince you to take part in a race against other parents at school, you'd want to do your best not to embarrass them right? And what would be the worst way to do that? Coming last? While this would probably be the one you'd think of, that was actually the least of Katie Hannaford's worries as she managed to take things one step further. The 36-year-old, who hails from Essex in the United Kingdom, lined up with the rest of the parents, getting ready to try her best in the upcoming race. However, just seconds into it, the mom tripped and fell straight on her face. Not only that, the summer dress she was wearing on the day rode all the way up to reveal a black thong right in the faces of the audience in attendance - and yes, that included in front of a handful of other children too. Have a look at the hilarious video below which was recorded by an audience member: [[facebookwidget||https://www.facebook.com/katie.hannaford/videos/559249639020903]] Taking to Facebook after the incident, Hannaford wrote: "Great day at Sports day for my little cherub. Come first in her race as well love her. Lessons learnt... I’m no longer 21 and shouldn’t run in the mums race and don’t ever wear a dress when running." Despite the embarrassing nature of the entire ordeal, she certainly saw the funny side of it all later uploading the clip alongside the caption: "When the kids got more at sports day than they were expecting! Haha! "If you can’t laugh at yourself then what’s life about ay! Sorry kiddo’s and anyone else watching!", she added. [[facebookwidget||https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10159154630922371&set=ecnf.711987370]] The post received an outpour of support with over seven thousand likes as well as hundreds of comments from other Facebook users who seemingly loved the fact that the mom tried her best to make her daughter proud. "You're great! That's it! For your daughter love you did it! Just respect!", wrote one user. "I love this mum. Great sense of humour! Accident happens," added another. "You absolute legend sharing this! Styling it out. Better luck for the next race," a third commented. Others made more jokes about the situation with one social media user writing: "It’s rumoured that a lot of husbands slept on the couch that night." <img class="wp-image-1263232160 size-large" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-73206980-1024x683.jpg" alt="Sports day at school" width="1024" height="683" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Ableimages/Getty]] I bet. The mom also loved the reaction to the red-faced moment, adding in a later post: "Wowzers!! Where to begin other than a HUGE thank you for all the love and support I have received since… erm… stacking it! "I honestly can’t believe how far this has gone, I only wanted to share a little bit of laughter and make someone smile, I never imagined it would blow up like this. "But I am sooooo pleased it’s made hundreds of people smile. That’s what it’s all about." She concluded the post: "Keep smiling, keep laughing, thanks again! To the haters…. #bemorekatie." So what have we learned from this video? Don't wear a dress on sports day? Or even better, tell your kid "no" when they ask you to take part. <h6>Featured Image Credit: Guido Mieth/Getty</h6>
