Have you used the Headspace runs on the Nike app? They do make me chuckle, witter, witter, witter....

As soon as I can run 25 minutes, they will be my soundtrack! I did the Nike 5 minute run a while back and the coach never shut up... made the time go though as I was expecting a quick pep-talk at either end!

I found “coach” and Andy irritating at the beginning as “meditation” for me involves lots of silence but they’ve grown on me and I think about their hints and tips even when not using the guided runs.

As for 25 minutes - you’ll get there. At Easter I couldn’t even run for 60 seconds and now the longest I’ve run is 48 minutes. 😊👍🏼

Don’t think I ever ran 25 minutes... but I know I can in a couple of weeks... exciting territory to be in 30 years after I had to stop running.

Me too, it’s exactly 30 years since I last ran regularly. It’s a great feeling going back to it again.
