Thursday - Exertion

Tonight, 100 words on exertion.
This may be used as an entry for your 100 Days drabble table.

The sweat is pouring off me as I finish my run. I slow to a stop in front of my house and lean on the front wall to do my warm-down stretches. Once inside, I pour myself a cool drink which I gulp down thirstily, then collapse into a chair and try to regain my breath. I hope my runs will get easier as I get fitter, as at the moment they just about do me in! Nonetheless I am pleased. After all, not so long ago I wouldn’t have been able to run this far at all. Go me!
