After pushing on with C25K to W8 R2, mostly outdoors (and learning to enjoy it) and completing every run, I got scuppered today! It was absolutely tipping down so had to go to the gym. First fire alarm went off in the warm up run - didn't hear it over my music so had to be politely ushered out. Then at just 14 minute into my run (half way) it went off again, so I had to abandon it. Such a shame! Anyway, back on the road for me. When the rain eventually stops...
First fail!: After pushing on with C25K to W8 R... - Couch to 5K
First fail!
Yes get back outside , no fire alarms out here 😂
But you tried! And it totally wasn’t your fault - unless you paid someone to set off the fire alarms!
O that is awkward, a faulty fire alarm going off twice, you should complain to the manager of the gym, it's not a fail, better luck time.
Apparently it was the third time that morning! But they can't ignore it, of course. And I feel guilty, because I wasn't enjoying my run, so part of me was relieved...
You didn’t fail... the alarm system did. Sometimes it’s out of our control. Good practice run, you’ll be stronger for the real deal next time out.
I misread that as first fall. Started reading that you were on a treadmill and was waiting with hands almost over eyes for a tale of a terrible treadmill chin graze
