A slight road bump

Today's run was going well until halfway through my 2nd run the phone rang...oldest daughter having a child minder problem...a panting conversation as I continued running...anyway I kept running and kept running...no michael! Took out my phone only to realise that the call had paused the program so I'd been running for an extra 2 minutes. Well this threw me out completely. And daughter had the cheek to say that she now believes that I run...Nevermind! Looking forward to wk5r1 next week!

Don't answer the phone. Whatever it is can wait 😃

Had that happen too a few times and text messages too, I've since started putting the phone into "Airplane Mode" before starting my runs.....then remember to turn Bluetooth back on so it can talk to my earphones!!
