WK6R3 two attempts

So i set off at 6am for this run only to get the worst cramp in my right side. I kept running through it but the pain increased until i just couldn't take it. I began to walk and then attempted to run again but it had me defeated. I walked the distance but felt this horrible feeling of failure. I couldn't shake it so i returned home, had a good drink of water, a ten minute rest and then i set off again and absolutely smashed the run. What an amazing feeling that was! Now officially a runner? Yes i am!!!!
