W5R2 done ... when should or if I think about distance

[welsby1967]

So that was fantastic I really didn’t want the walk in the middle as I felt quite comfortable then it took me a few minutes to gain my rhythm back on the second run.

So far though I’ve not even given the distance covered a second thought but just had a look now and I’m only covering just over 3.6k I’m not bothered as for me it’s about fitness but I was curious

Thanks and have a great week

Your distance is fine the point is you're finishing each run at the moment distance comes later 😊

Thanks Buddy34 like I say I’ve never even thought about it until today that’s good to know it’s ok thanks x

snap-just back from doing the same and about the same distance.

[welsby1967 Graduate in reply to runwithdog]

It was great wasn’t it ? At least we know our distance is ok and not too slow

[runwithdog Graduate in reply to welsby1967]

yes,i thought 8min was a big step but carefully following the plan it all falls into place roll on friday x

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

As mentioned in the guide to the plan C25K does not demand you to cover any specific distance of run at any particular pace....it is solely duration based.

You are doing great.

[welsby1967 Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Thanks I’ve reread and I’m feeling quite pleased with myself

[runwithdog Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

this is why i have given up before when other apps change to distances and i got discouraged.

i love this app also because it can be used on my fone without using data

[welsby1967 Graduate in reply to runwithdog]

Yes big pluses

Let’s see how we both get on on Friday morning 😀
