Sarah disappeared on me!!

W8r2 this morning. Sarah was with me along the way telling me how well I was doing and that I had 5 mins left of my run. Eminem in my ears “lose yourself in the moment...” I picked up my pace and as it came to the end of the track Sarah never announced “Thats it. Well done” so I carried on running thinking the track must be shorter than I thought. On came the next track and I was nearly outside my house by then with Strava announcing I’d run 4K. I stopped and looked at the app and it said I’d run for 32mins!! When I checked the C25K app it said I had 9+ mins left to run 😳 God knows where Sarah disappeared off to lol. Has this happened with anyone else with the app?

Yep I had it for week 6 run 3 and week 7 run 1. No idea why, but Jo would tell me to start running and then the app would pause! I then had to base my runs off my Strava timings.

For these I was starting Strava after the warm up rather than from the very start, so maybe that’s why it stopped for me, having said that I managed to do run 2 no problem and run 3 I did on a treadmill so no Strava messing lol.

I’m just happy it’s happened on the continuous runs where I can keep my own timing rather than the intervals 😂

Yeah I start my Strava just as I’m about to start running as well. She’d better not disappear on my graduation run!! Lol

Yeah I’d realise once I’d hit 1k the first time that she hadn’t said I’d been going for 5 minutes, but figured that might be normal, before i knew it I’d done 1.5k in just under 13 minutes, and should’ve been heading back. That was when I checked the app and I apparently still had 24:58 left to run lol.

Haha. Imagine if you’d not checked you’d still be running now like Forest Gump!
