Three things The Girl needs to remember the next time she goes jogging in her local park:
1) Take 3 x Ibruprofen at
least an hour before exercising: having painful period cramps during a run is no fun. (Note, The Girl continued on regardless, such is her dedication to having sculpted muscular thighs)
2) Make sure i-pod batteries are fully charged before leaving the house: missing the end of
Otis Redding's Try A Little Tenderness whilst only 25 minutes into the run and then having to spend the next 25 minutes running along with silent headphones is horrible. (And somehow more difficult to run when there is no beat)
3) Ensure all horniness is dealt with prior to going running: needing to have a fiddle whilst running at speed across an open space is frustrating. (And no, there was going to be no
outdoors-daylight-frigging: it's one thing to be masturbating on a country lane in the middle of nowhere; it's an entirely different matter doing it in one's local park.
Indecent exposure springs to mind)
And for those Paula Radcliffe devotees about to ask: The Girl always uses the toilet prior to going on a run: she is a
lady.
