W5R1 - I desrve a medal

Why do I deserve a medal? Let me tell you why!

There I was, minding my own business and about to start my second 5-minute run and a chuffing wasp stung me!! It felt as if a teeny-tiny person had taken a running jump at my ankle with a teeny-tiny dagger!

I flicked it off, swore, loudly more than once and carried on with my run! I actually have little recollection of the rest of the run, only the spreading pain.

Made it home as per Miss Millican's instructions and now sitting here with 4.16k under my best and a hot, red ankle :-(

Gingernutter , I hope your run is less eventful this morning ;-)
