Laura is My Coach

Most enjoyable run so far. I'm on week 3 run 1. The 3 minute runs enable you to get into a rhythm and of course when you do the 90 seconds it's a doddle in comparison.

I chose Laura as my coach I guess because she just looks like a fellow runner. I've no idea if she is someone famous? I decided I didn't want a comedian for this discipline of guiding me through to running 5k. I like Michael Johnson but get enough of his punditry on BBC.

Onwards and Upwards

I had Laura- she became my best friend and hubby had to put up with "but Laura says ..." you are doing great and sound like you are enjoying yourself. Happy running 👍😀

I too had Laura as my coach, she is the type of person who I could meet at a parkrun on a Saturday morning, you are not likely to meet the other coaches on C25K at a parkrun on a Saturday, for some of my shorter runs, especially runs 5.3, 6.3 and run 3 of week 9, I still have Laura for company.
