Wk 6 - Complete

Well...I started Wk 6 R 1 last Saturday so that I could have two runs - M & W - in Cornwall where I was on holiday. Got to Cornwall on Monday afternoon and completed Wk 6 R 2. On Wednesday, trying to get out before the rain, I started R 3. Not sure what happened but blaming my connection in the Cornish wilds.

Was thinking that the brisk 5 minutes was taking much longer and looked and the wheel showed that I should be in the run. Thinking I would turn around two minutes after the half-way bell. It rang, I kept going and the app started over at the beginning of the run with the instructions.

Turned the phone on and off and just started using my phone's timer as I didn't want to stop running. I'm sure I ran for 25 minutes, probably closer to 35 as I did want to short change the run.

I'm calling it complete and look forward to Wk 7!!!

So loving this programme! Thanks...

Love your motivation to get out for runs when on hols - I always pack the kit and it never leaves the bag. 🤣🤣🤣 It's so annoying when the tech fails, isn't it? Oh well, it's continuous runs now so it will be easier to keep track if the app plays up again.
