Past the halfway mark

Just completed run 2 week 5 and feel amazing, probably the best I have felt since starting C25K.

Today I used a Metronome for the first time, what a brilliant little app.

I set it to 170 for the first half of the run then 176 the second half, it really does keep you on track with the pace and found I ran more smoothly.

Roll on Wednesday, that's a big jump from today but bring it on ๐Ÿ˜„

Well done... thereโ€™s no big jump, itโ€™s a little step down... look at the total time between your warm up and cool down... thatโ€™s time spent with the heart rate up... and itโ€™s longer than 20 minutes. You can do it!

When I say big jump I mean next run goes from two 8 minute runs to one 20 minute run.

But not worried and can't wait ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Yes... and the one before is 8+5+8 which is more that 20 I think!
