W5R2 and when Mr Johnson told me that I actually believed him (my right leg disagrees but I think it’s just trying to annoy me)

He doesn’t seem too enthusiastic I agree but when he’s telling you about what he does when he gets cramp I can actually imagine him running and getting cramp

in reply to robOliver

Haha 😂🤣 i used to find that whenever he suggested i might be feeling "tired" or wanted to stop i suddenly felt really tired & wanted to stop!!!the powers of suggestion haha 😂🤣

Also...i felt utterly cheated not to mention let down on my graduation run that he repeated the same podcasts from runs 1 & 2 & in no way whatsoever acknowledged the fact that i had...in fact...completed the programme!!!disgraceful!!!😁

I’m sick of his dulcet tones so I’m changing from week 6 to Joe Wylie I think, I’ve ran with Sarah too but considering how funny she is and from my neck of the woods she’s boring! 😫 well done x

I loved Mr Smooth, as I felt when he said stuff he knew what he was doing as an Olympian. Not too enthusiastic and shouty, but smooth for me. And when he told me I was a runner, well I whooped for joy.

His dulcet tones overcame any twinges I ever had.

Happy running with Mr Smooth

Fully agree and I can’t stop smiling when he talks to me. Only on week 2 but not giving up on him any time soon! Good luck 😀

Legs can be very annoying but they’re fairly useful! Sounds like you’re doing great! 🏃‍♂️👍🏻
