Week 2 run 3 done and dusted phew! Those last two 90 second runs my legs felt like two bin liners full of porridge....🤪 What's helping is lovely Sarah Millican and finding energising songs at the right BPM which for me at the mo is 150 - 160. Such as

Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis

Reward by The Teardrop Explodes

Ant music by Adam and the Ants

Stepping Out by Joe Jackson

Love to hear what songs others find the best for running or any other cracking 150_160 BPM choons?

It's great to have energising music to run to. BUT, remember it is not obligatory to run at a given pace at this stage of the programme. Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't keep in step to the beat. Just finish, and in one piece!
