The frump hump jump

So, having just had a cold that made me faint a couple of times and then starting my awful period with gut wringing cramps and utter exhaustion, I really did not think I would be able to run today.

But I knew if I didn't now then I was never going to graduate. The next few weeks I'm moving to Aberdeen and with all the kerfuffle that entails I wasn't sure when my next run time could be.

So on go the bright orange running shoes, the lycra, running top, headphones, go!

And I made it! Third 25 minute run, done! Dusted! I'm not going to lie, I'd like to say it was my easiest run but wow it was hot and I was tired, but slow and steady I completed it! I'm so proud of myself!

I've even already wangled out some running time on Saturday for my next run. I can definately do this. Determination ftw.

And the cramps appear to have receeded too! Double bonus!
