So sitting here still fighting off this pesky virus...i was thinking...how lush it would be if we could pick & choose who is encouraging us along on this journey on the app.For instance...i have Sarah Millican...buy what i would really LπŸ’œVE is to have IDRIS ELBA speaking words of encouragement into my earphones.i think i would have no problem finishing this programme 😍 Who would be your dream coach & why?πŸ€”

So Idris is on mine, I have introduced him ( in my dreams and via Netflix only) to plenty of Italian ladies and he has quite a local fan club following.

Ignoring the sass appeal, for a lady coach I'd probably choose Joanna Lumley, because in Italy all the lady podistas are really chic, and have full makeup which doesn't slide off and they have swoosh ponytails. And I think if she could actually run besides me being in her Patsy persona. I'd be able to laugh and not be overawed by perfect podistas...

Mine would be Gunery Sergent Hartman from Full Metal Jacket. He would not let me quite and would be screaming and roaring at me to keep going. I'd even have a War Cry when I'd feel the pain.

I need tough love. I was the same in School, always did best in subjects where teachers were screaming and roaring at me.πŸ˜€

Fair point, I always took advantage of the wimps... so know what you mean, but now I'm a nearly grown up, I prefer cosseting. Which is why I dumped the shouty American coach on ease into 10k.... it wasn't the American bit it was the shouty bit.

Good idea! If he was still about I'd go for Lemmy from MotΓΆrhead though he does growl at me a lot anyway as part of my playlist!
