Just did the first run on week 8 but I ditched the podcasts at the end of week 6. I liked Laura but not the music. Can anyone tell me if I've missed anything, any good tips?

Laura's tips are useful, but in the case of breathing and foot strike contentious, to say the least. You will, of course, not be considered a true graduate of NHS C25k unless you have lived through "Julie"..........destined to be a lightweight in the eyes of the old school. Mind you, not bugged by crippling earworms either.

Keep running, keep smiling.

You've missed Julie -a c25k rite of passage. Go back to the podcasts -it's only 5 more runs ;)

Oh my gosh, you've missed her. You can't go without Julie! I still take her out with me on occasion ;)

Okay, so do I need to listen to all the week 7 podcasts to hear this mysterious Julie then?

She joins you in week 8 and is a rare treat😊. For week 7 and week 8 and probably for week 9 ( eek!), I listened to the podcast in the first run, then used my own music/ timer for the next ones. X

I like to save Julie for very special occasions! Everything in moderation 😉

I just completed r 1 w9 but felt bad that I still hadn't heard the podcast so just listened to it while working. It's the song right? I loved that song!!
