I must have hit pause on the app. Got a bit suspicious when I came round for a second lap of my usual one lap route. Thought it was odd that Laura hadn’t said anything for a while. Week 8 run 2 - you will live in my memory for ever!

I haven't had a run yet where the programme hasn't stopped or cut out but it doesn't matter and clearly didn't hinder you.

That happened to me when I was aiming to run a 10K, however, the week before that I began with the intention of running a 9K, for some reason or another my app failed to give out an auto voice at 9K, I continued running thinking this is an awful long 9K no voice telling me where 9K was, so I got my phone out of my pocket and noticed that I had ran 9.6K, so I just continued to 10K a week earlier than intended.
