Disappearing run

Decided I'd do an interval run today, so as it's nearly Halloween went with Coach Bennett's Spooky Speed Run.

It was a bit chilly as we set off but I told myself that within 10 minutes I'd be warm (I was right).

It's about a month since I've done anything other than a very gentle 3k so I thought I might find today a bit challenging but quite the opposite. I was going faster than I expected and it didn't feel too much like hard work.

The whole thing about the run is that Coach B doesn't tell you how long the intervals are or what the pace will be, take it from me it was worth doing. I'd downloaded a drum and bass podcast from BBC Sounds which was perfect for the speedier intervals and all in all I definitely enjoyed myself.

Finally Coach B announced it was the final interval. I set off at the pace he specified and ran. And ran. And...hang on, he doesn't normally keep quiet this long...? Checked the app, pressed some buttons and realised that the run hadn't recorded. How very annoying.

I've tweeted Coach Bennett to tell him my sorry experience!

What a shame it didn't record, I did that run a while ago and it was fun
