Hi week 2 guys!

I was dreading tonights run as I knew it was going to be harder? (I found last weeks hard enough)

I managed it just about?

I really thought I had achieved something and it felt good.

(I still think Laura needs a new stopwatch! Her 90 seconds seemed to take forever!)

Anyway, roll on Wednesday!

You are at the same stage as I am Barrie....my first week had two sessions on the treadmill and one in the woodlands very nearby to me. The woodland sessions was much more enjoyable! But as I work full time, that will either have to be very early in the morning or at the end of the day until the light extends a little more. Good luck this week! My first one of week 2 is tomorrow too.

Well done you! When I started week 2 I just found it too hard, so did week 1 again. After that I managed weeks 2 and 3 without giving up and just finished second run of week 4. I now look on 90 second runs with fondness. Keep at it, Laura knows what she's doing!

Well done, you're already thinking about your next one so that's good. When I started I thought I had paused the app I couldn't believe how long 60/90 seconds felt like! Stick with it and you will be fine. x
