Done it......got soaked in the process but enjoyed it none the less.

I’m using the app, and around mid way through there’s like a chiming noise which happened on R1 and I thought it was a message alert (new phone which I’m not entirely familiar with). But it happened again today so I’m wondering if it is a half way through alert. Does anybody know?

I believe it is the half way alarm Wenderwoo! :-)

Well done! Yes that’s the half way bell incase you want to turn around and head back to your starting point x

Great for getting out in the rain on your first week and yes that's the half way bell. I was drenched from the start today and the sun came out on the last minute of running, how kind. Well done you 😊

As others have said, well done for getting to this stage. I'm at exactly the same place although it's about the fifth time I've done the run as I had a couple of false starts for various reasons. Yes, the bell is a half way marker which I use as a signal to turn around as I do a 'there & back as opposed to going around a circuit.

Yes, it will be useful for that. I currently run around a lake opposite where I live, and it’s slightly long at the mo, meaning I walk a bit longer than the last 5 minutes. But presumably you run further as you run for longer minutes, (and maybe get a bit faster), so it will come in handy later into the plan!
