Breaking Things off with Laura

Having tried the podcast 3 times and finding the music both boring and Laura's breaking through, ruining my concentration, very annoying, I've decided that the podcast isn't for me, so I downloaded the C25K programme to my new phone and went running (no pun intended) back to the trainers that we know and love. Though this time I decided to go for Michael Johnson for a change.

Change is good.

Awwww, poor Laura! ;) But you're absolutely right to find the version which works for you. Better to spurn Laura and keep going than stick with her and give up... :)

I was going to write a long jokey 'break-up' post but time's ticking on

'Laura, you know I've had enough of you, and truly,

You know I've heard it all before.

Every day its the same old story.'

:-)

Best to stick with whatever works for you. I occasionally try out speed and other podcasts but always return to Jimi Hendrix and other music !!

The 1,2,3,4 ! from Laura gets on my nerves after a while. Like square bashing Sergeant Major !!

Have to play Jimi Hendrix and friends to get it out of my head.

Think need to try playing that song "You got me singing the blues" think it was by Guy Mitchell ? to playout Laura.

Main thing is your getting out there and making it a happy experience !!

Just graduated but sticking with Laura for a week or two

Annoying music but strangly comforting

Not what you're looking for?
