W8 R1 Thank you Stacey Dooley

Just completed W8 R1 and feel that I must thank Stacey Dooley. Over the last few runs I have discovered that if I can find a way of not looking at the clock while I am running then so much the better. Unfortunately the C25K app is very temperamental in these 'ere rural parts so I have to find another way. Today it was Stacey Dooley' s brilliant podcast that got me through. The most recent episode was 29minutes so I knew that if I listened all the way through I had beaten R1 of W8. Time to find something else for R2 on Monday.....

Great job. There’s plenty of wonderful podcasts, but finding one of the right length is difficult. The early episodes of the parkrun podcast “Free Weekly Timed” were all deliberately 29 minutes as it was the average finish time at parkrun. Season 2 threw that out of the window though.
