Where's Michael?

5 Replies

I started up the app today to do W2R2 and it wanted me to go through the set-up procedure again. I did this, but when I got to choosing a mentor, Michael Johnson was not there any more, so I had to choose again. What's going on?

I have no idea, sorry.

How is the jogging going, after your Week 1 struggles?

in reply to John_W

After four attempts at R1 I finally managed 8 minutes, then was able to do the next 2 runs ok. W2 R1 & 2 now done. I was a few seconds short in the middle but carried on with the final run to make it up. Not strictly how it should be done, but I'm calling it a success. My OH is doing C25K too, so I'll see if he's had any trouble with the app.

Well done for perservering.

Just remember to keep it nice and comfortable, and easy breathing :-)

UPDATEI just tapped on the support button on the app and found a post about Michael Johnson not being a coach any more.

"Michael is now passing the baton on to the other trainers and some new voices joining the team in the near future".

Oh no! I hope I don't loose him. He sounds so authoritative and reassuring. I hope you find a good replacement 🤞🏼
