Week 7 in the bag! wow..this is IT

[parktrotter]

This week has been solid running for 25mins each time and my earphones broke. At first I missed Laura giving me prompts but I don't miss the music. Now I just run with my watch and only look at it when I come to a significant block end. I now know it takes 5 mins to run round the lake and now I've outgrown the park its great to discover the little brook continues over the road so I can run down there now too. I haven't had cramp or stitch once....thank you guys for your great C25k plan ..I am enjoying knowing I don't need to stop any more.

well done parktrotter , sounds like you’re really enjoying yourself!!

[parktrotter Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

I am. But believe me -when I began in October I could barely run for one minute.

Well done! Keep starting the app though, even if you dont use it, just so you can get that Graduation run as a celebration!

Oh I will Mig. I meant to get new headphones today atch. Forgot. Thing is- my son was home for Christmas and his IDENTICAL pair were dodgy sooooo. I suspect he now has a perfect pair! Done me a favour tho cos I'm going to get soft earplugs.

Every cloud!

I got Samsung Galaxy ear buds free with my phone and I absolutely love them.

Stupidly left that out after a run and they went flat. Had to go to my backup pair of wired ear buds. My goodness what a difference that made. Not a great experience!

oh great. I'm upgrading my phone and its a samsung galaxy so I'll get those with it. Good to know.
