W9R2. Ditched Laura this morning and ran 32 minutes in silence. Enjoyed the silence and the run. One more to do.

Well done, you are SO close to graduation .... I can feel my congratulations starting to bubble :) I run with out music, I find the outside world has it's own sound track.

Congratulations! I left Laura at home last night so she could have a rest! Week 7/R2 with just a watch to time and my thoughts! I really enjoyed it. I did 26 minutes! It's great to know you can be self motivated!

Enjoy your next and last run! Graduation! :-)

It's good to go out naked sometimes, well not naked cause that will have you arrested mostly likely. But naked ears and just listen to the sound of the world as you glide by.

One more run to go :D

I think I need music. There are a couple of stretches on my route (country roads) where I take out the ear buds just for safety sake (blind corners and summits, etc.) and I do quite enjoy it but I cant imagine doing the whole lot without something

I have ditched her now and created a run playlist instead. I was finding the music annoying, and it has made a big difference to my run.

Sometimes you've just got to leave Laura at home and see how you get on on your own. Personally I found a) I definitely definitely need music and b) if Laura tells me I can stop running, I have to stop. I don't seem to be able to carry on. I'm just very obedient I guess :)

I always thought I needed music until I did the Edinburgh half marathon (badly) last year and it wasn't allowed (although many people still wore earphones).

now much prefer no music, seems to help my breathing a lot. just my thoughts though :)
