Arrgh- App timings went awry wk5 r1

Well to be honest it was my own fault. Doing wk5 r1 and I was fiddling with earphones when I must have paused the app. So half way round I thought ‘I haven’t heard any commentary. Because I’m short sighted I couldn’t read my watch either! So had to guess. Difficult to tell if I did what was required. I think I stopped too early on the last run.

Not sure whether to move onto r2 or repeat r1. Arrgh.

I always put C25K in the background... usually have Nike run club open, so if I hit pause it won’t stop Sarah telling me what to do, just stops my tracker.

Your choice..if you want to be sure.. repeat it and enjoy it... treat as a dress rehearsal and have fun:) If I am ever in doubt I do run a bit longer to make sure on timed runs:)

My phone constantly turns the app off if I put it in a pocket or my running belt... Its so frustrating... Especially at the start as I had no watch either so was having to countdown constantly. Thankfully got it sorted now as i come to the end of week 4
