Looks like I have sent Gremlins packing (for now)

4 Replies

Well after my disastrous run on Monday in Sunny Spain I decided to try Laura's Stepping Stones podcast. It worked! Managed a full 30 minute run and upped my pace to the beat - loved it!! Sadly it would seem I need the challenge and direction of Laura telling me what to do or I just give up! Anyway feel much better now I have done a full 30 minute run again so will stick with good old Laura for a while.

I agree. I've used this podcast for two runs this week and can recommend them to any who, like me, struggled without Laura 'by their side'. I'm also looking forward to some Spanish running in a few weeks time :)

Yep we definitely need Laura for a while after we graduate! Running in Spain is great but has to be early morning as it's around 29 degrees as soon as it gets light!
