Hi All
I have been using the NHS C25k App for a number of years - on and off. I am currently on Week 7, the furthest I have been so far! I tend to stretch the weekly runs into a whole month and therefore I have been on this plan for the past 7 months!
Now that the runs are getting longer I find it difficult to keep my mind occupied. So what did I start doing? I started reading books on my kindle on the treadmill. LOL. I have done it a few times now and I must say...I wish I had done it earlier in the program. Now, whilst jogging, my minutes fly by without me realising - as well as catching up on my reading - and I am loving it!
So my little tip to break the mindset for long runs would be try reading a story on your ipad/kindle on the treadmill.
