Well after struggling with my runs for a couple of weeks but then getting a PB on 5km run on Sunday, I was on a real high, and I decided to tweet Coach Bennett to thank him for guiding me round. Didn't think he'd even see it but I got such a lovely reply to say he had spoken the words but I'd guided myself! OMG I feel like a groupie but I was and am so chuffed that ' the' actual Coach Bennett actually took the time to read and comment. Now when I do a guided run, it will be with my 'friend' Coach Bennett!!๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Excellent that coach Bennett commentated about your post, nowadays there are a lot of "Auto voices" about such as Alexa but Coach Bennett and the coaches on C25K are humans like Laura.

That's so cool! I'll remember that when he's talking to me in my ear next time. I really enjoy his double act with Andy Puddicombe - they're very funny together!
