How annoying. Have been doing with my daughter the STAMINA podcast, which is very satisfying.BUT ! By the time we are finished after 35 minutes she has completed a full 5k whilst little me only 4.39 k. Yet we both follow same music with 155 them 160 then 166 beats per minutes . I can only conclude that her longer gangly legs and longer strides must account for the difference. Of course she is 30 and I am 65.... DOH😂

Dunt matter a jot.! You are doing it, and I have to say, flipping well done to you as STAMINA podcast is very tough! The last five minute bit is dead ‘ard 💪👍🏃‍♀️

Bask in your Stepping Stones glory and be proud. Keep doing them til you get them off pat! I use them a lot, still! 💪💪💪💪💪💪🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️👍

Started off together, innocently thinking that with having to follow the same music beat we would be side by side....🤣🤣
