First run without Laura...

...which I was not looking forward to. On the upside it gave me a chance to listen to my own music, which was great And when the lady - I am using Nike+ app now - said 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc I could hear Laura encouraging me to get into a nice steady pace, that I can do it, etc. And guess what? I can do it. I ran for 30 minutes at a similar speed as previous runs and got home sweaty and tired but happy.

Well done! Laura is very calming isn't she, I do miss her when I run without her. it's good to run to your own music but in some weird way if I'm running with Laura I don't question how long my run should be, if I'm on my own I can be tempted to stop sooner.

I know what you mean! For someone I have never met I put a lot of trust in her and for good reason because I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for the programme and Laura.

That's funny, I downloaded the Nike+ app yesterday though haven't used it yet. Bravo for keeping up your pace, I've only done one run this week Felt very unwell then too much snow. Hopefully I will get out tomorrow now that the snow has passed so at least I'll have managed two out of three runs. Looking forward to trying the app.
