W5 R2 with Mr C

Well I had my virtual Mr Smooth and my real Mr C with me this morning and loved this run. Was a little tentative. Mr C has been offering to run with me for the last two weeks but I've preferred my solitude and if I'm honest I thought he'd make me go too fast πŸ˜‰ (no rude pun intended πŸ˜‚) He's spent most of his life playing and coaching football and cricket to a good standard so he is naturally fitter than me but I think 2 x 8 mins runs with 5 mins walks was a good entry point for our first couples run. For once I had my playlist on low volume whilst Mr C chatted as we ran through England's green and pleasant land. I listened of course and only spoke to repeat Mr Smooth says just 60 seconds more to go! Yet another milestone reached which I could only dream about a few weeks ago. Now let's just check the W5 R3 structure.... OMG 20 mins?! Are you serious? 😳
