Not sure what happened today but not only did I manage to run non stop again for 28 minutes but when I looked down on my watch it was over 30 minutes. Now thinking do I do another 30 minutes rather than going back to 28 minutes and see if I can.

Woohooo so the answer for me is not to look at my watch and just listen to the music. I've slowed my pace down to 12.45 minutes per mile and felt very relaxed.

Hey well done you, why not leave the watch at home and just listen to Laura and the music.

Thanks Lauren - I've not actually been using the app for the couch25k just the written plan and my ipod lol My watch is a garmin so it logs my time and distance so I'll keep wearing it but not look at it. Quite excited and hope you are getting on too xx
