What a difference swapping ap made!!

So I'd started my C25K journey with an annoying American voice and only by chance asking my cousin if her's kept crashing did I discover the joys of the RIGHT version!!!!! Thank you Jo Wiley!!! Week 6 run 1 smashed out with a massive smile on my face!!!! Lead legs at one point but in she pipped at just the right time keeping me moving forward!!! Home I came buzzing and ready for run 2.

Plan on doing a park run at the begining of march and feeling like it might actually be possible to run most of it!!!!

That's great, well done! 😃

[Millsie-J Graduate]

Terrific run, well done you and Jo!

[MinnieNounou]

I’ve just done week 6 run 1. Jo really knows what to say and when. Good luck

[CallieGunit Graduate in reply to MinnieNounou]

You too! I'm not too stressed about run 2 but stooooopidly looking ahead to run 3 am thinking best get a good playlist ready 😂

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate]

I think they all say the same script. But we'll done. I'm just starting w8

[CallieGunit Graduate in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

I'm cool with it all being scripted, it's WAAAAAYY better than the version I was using. Just to keep you motivated and focused and distracted from over thinking it. Your nearly ready to graduate! Looking forward to actually getting this under my belt!

I've been on a completely different app, which one is it called that you now have please?

[CallieGunit Graduate in reply to kezza2008]

Public health England couch 2 5 k. Think it's says one you couch to 5 k. It's green and yellow logo. I was on run trainer c25k which had an American lady who did literally just sat start walking start running and not much else in between

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate]

Mine is the couch25k it's free the official one it's a teal green colour icon and has white writing g in logo for app

It’s not the same script, I was torn between Sarah Mcgilligan(spelling?!?) coz I thought she was funny and jo whiley ,who frankly I fancied in my youth on radio 1, so I went with Sarah coz i thought humour would help, but by week three it became very obvious all she was doing was reading from a script so I switched to jo ...and ..wow...she’s amazing..she talks for longer, mentions her known trials and i genuinely don’t think I’d currently be on week 6 without her ( it’ sounds really weird or stalkerish, but I think of her as my running buddy now🤣😂) if your struggling to pick one. Go for jo 👍🏻

[CallieGunit Graduate in reply to OlderThanDirt]

That made me spit out my tea laughing!! She has a lovely tone for sure!

[kezza2008 Graduate in reply to OlderThanDirt]

hahaha, I think I have found the right one. I seem to have more 5k running apps on my phone than anything else now! hopefully I will settle with this one, I selected sarah so will do one run of her then probs switch to jo

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate]

I use Michael Johnson to tell me when to run he is alwats right there with me. I also usent amazon music free indie upbeat mix songs (free). It cuts in and talk's over the music which is great

[CallieGunit Graduate in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

Yeah, I use a playlist on Spotify and she happily pops in over the music. I have discovered how important it has been formed to have the right playlist. I made my own up at first and was jumping from one place to another. Then discover Spotify do playlist and you can pick the pace and boom, I'm back in the game!

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate]

Didn't realise it was different script first few weeks were the same so I thought it was all the same might try another one then x
