Just back from the run I needed to do tonight. Ended up being slightly longer than it should have been as for some reason the delightful Sarah dozed off for a few minutes. It was only when I realised she hadnโ€™t spoken to me for an entire song I realised sheโ€™d temporarily abandoned me lol. Thankfully it was on a walk rather than a run.

Anyway, wk 2 run 2 complete, next attempt Saturday all being well.

Have a good evening and happy running ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Some of the coaches do that, they have a little snooze when they should be telling you when to walk or run, a case of not concentrating on their job, apart from that you had a great run, onwards and upwards to run 3 of week 2, just make sure that your coach doesn't doze off during your ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿพ run.

Itโ€™s just inconsiderate of them isnโ€™t it ๐Ÿ˜‚. Thank you AlMorr, Iโ€™m glad I got out there and enjoyed some time out in the fresh air.

You could change your coach to Laura, during my 9 weeks doing C25K and on runs ever since when I rerun, usually 5/3, 6/3 or 9/3 I have never known Laura to doze off.

Well done on completing your extra long run. Sarah being the comedian she is looking for the last laugh ๐Ÿ˜‚

I have Sarah too, sheโ€™s willing us on flower ๐ŸŒท

Than you Ryndle,

๐Ÿ˜‚ that could explain it haha. Sheโ€™s kind of comforting to listen to though isnโ€™t she. Good luck with your runs ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘ I had to have Sarah, love her, didnโ€™t want to make this a too serious exercise, wanted to have fun & enjoy it, not dread the runs so far so good. Iโ€™m a Japanese runner ๐Ÿคฃ one step up from walking. Many people have spoken about Japanese running, check it out xx

I hope youโ€™re right. Iโ€™m determined not to give in to the fibro, and Iโ€™m determined not to give in to anything else either. I really want to complete this :)

Bluecat9 in reply to SueAppleRun

It isnโ€™t at all is it. Although it does get a little easier after a couple of run though, when warmed up properly.

SueAppleRunGraduate in reply to Bluecat9

Yes always start to get warm after a while, we had one run where Michael abandoned us completely he said now run and that was it so i kept an eye on my watch and guessed
