That second ten minutes started feeling a bit tough, so cranked up the music (Two Door Cinema Club, thanks for asking) & got my head down.

25 minutes on Wednesday - must choose my tunes wisely. Recommendations?

Prince and Madonna got me through C25K, but then I am a child of the '80s! I listen to all sorts now, occasionally podcasts too; and sometimes *gasp* I run with no music at all – but took me 2.5 years to build up to that. :-) It's nice when you are out in the woods though, you can hear yourself huffing and puffing and birdsong.

Well done on your W6R2 run. It can be tough, but know that you are tougher! Enjoy your next run. :-)

Well done! I’ve tried all sorts of music and podcasts and not really settled on anything. I really enjoyed the final few minutes of a recent run though when Lust for Life kicked in πŸ‘πŸ˜
