Nike help today

After reading of someone downloading the Nike run app I gave it a try today. I still like the C25K coaching style but Coach Bennett made a nice change. He chatted more and helped me through the painful bits! 😂. I actually ran for 32 minutes this morning. 👍🏻

Same. I’ve had a tough couple of weeks and really struggled with my running. I put coach Bennett on yesterday for the first time, and he really helped me through it.

I love Coach Bennett... and the other coaches aren’t bad either! Well done on that run.

Can I ask UNM, when you use NRC with your own music do you have any volume problems? I find when Coach is loud enough my music is then deafening and scares me when it starts! I can’t find a way to adjust it and I’m not keen on the NRC playlists.

Mine fades in and out ok... but I do have volume limits on my phone, so my max is the EU recommended max volume for earphones. So with that all set, I turn my phone to maximum volume when connected to Bluetooth, which is recommended by the car stereo manufacturers anyway.

I think this level setting is dynamic, spoken word doesn’t seem to turn down as much as Slipknot 😂

I also have the Nike app and switch it on each run so I have a record...the morning headspace runs are really good too. Well done on the run this morning.

That’s funny! I graduated a couple of weeks ago and had also read about Coach Bennett- Keen for a change I gave it a go on Monday and he drove me completely bonkers!! Today I just put on music and re ran week 9 with Laura. 🤣Maybe I picked the wrong guided run 😂
