    I think running is a very dignified way of describing my ragged clopping, but I get the job done :D Back to the gym this evening, feeling a bit perkier than yesterday but the 04:00 alarm call from DD was not appreciated.

    £0.25 paid off a CC. Meh, that's a bit depressing.

    Managed to finish my run, but I'm exhausted, too tired today.

    Only 3 more runs and I graduate from C25K!

    Positive fashion = application of electricity.

    That's current thinking anyway...
