W4R1 - Best run yet

Had a fab run today. Am at a hotel and used a tredmill and was my best run yet. Don't know why I was so apprehensive about this one!!

But at the end I was thinking am sure I have been running for more than 5 mins, my flipping app had stopped working so had actually run more than needed too!!!! Hey ho was enjoying it.

Here's to the next run 😁😁

Hey 👋🏻 well done you! I run on a treadmill most of the time, am a bit worried about making the transition to road. Sounds silly but want to be coping before I go out in public! I’m 53 and middle age spread omg! 😂🏃‍♀️

Don’t worry, I suspect that’s more common than people own up to! I’ll own up - it’s one of the main reasons I am using a treadmill too. I am a good few years older than you and wanted to be vaguely competent at jogging along at my own snail-like pace before stepping out in public - w1r1 was definitely not a pretty sight :). But now in week 3 and will be venturing outside for my first public run over the couple of weeks.

Brilliant Lou!

I ditched the app at the start of week 2.

Now i use the podcast and a wrist stopwatch as a backup plan.
