Well my headphones ran out of power, accidentally switched off c25k app so no Mr Smooth so I ran same route as Tuesday and used Fitbit to tell me how long I had run, fortunately I set phone to track exercise. Just carried on until I’d been going for 35 mins then 5 min cool down. Same distance as last run so i am counting that as w9r2 done ✅

That's definitely done! Bloomin' tech! MapMyRun failed me today. 🙁

But! Just one run left, Carolyn! I am keeping the podium warm for you, lovely runner! 🏃‍♀️👏

I had Tech gremlins on Sat for my W7R3- and found I ran further than ever so it’s not always a negative

Perhaps we rely on all the tech too much - when actually we’re afraid to admit that perhaps we are actually runners!!

Having said that I’ve gone back to using all my apps this week - and my distance continues to increase!!
