So this morning I tried the new change4life app -same programme but you can play you own music -that all sounded great , but think it actually effected my run not having the occasional comment or advice from Laura -I needed her!! Loved listening to my own music but not at the expense of her words of wisdom and support!!! Back to the programme for me

No Laura on the app? :-( I thought we would be getting the same words of wisdom but with our own choice of music. I'm disappointed now. I think I may stick with the good old mp3s too then if that's the case.

Oh dear, I thought about downloading it just for something different to run to but with a structure and directions overlaid on my own tunes. If there is no Laura or pacing/timing prompts, then what on earth is the app all about? I've been able to run to my own stuff for ages. Disappointed :(

I'll stick to my hours worth of great MP3 tunes and my Garmin forerunner for distances and pace recording! Thanks for the feedback. Cheers, Linda

Laura's smooth voice just says walk/time to run - but no encouragement or feedback that I heard on mine.

Sorry must be me , just listened to the next one too and there she was! Perhaps I didn't realise she was there this morning!or I was just getting withdrawl from the lovely nhs music. Ignore my silliness everyone-it was a 6.30am run!!
