How can I motivate myself to keep doing C25K? I usually run with my partner but now he's away, I feel I can be lazy and "get away with it"!

Just do it! I made excuses while away for the weekend, but I just thought about how hard it would be if I had a huge gap between runs because I would lose the routine

It's only half an hour, think how smug you'll feel when he gets back ;)

You are completely right of course! I just need to get home from work, put my running gear on and get out there. And yes, I would feel quite pleased with myself if I can run further/faster when he gets back :-)

Excuses excuses.... Thanks Boo!

I'd be wanting to startle him with my speed and agility when he gets back ;-) Think how impressed he'll be ! You can just be smug and say "Oh, it was easy really...."

I may not go to heaven for this, but I believe smugness is the way forward! Went out tonight and it wasn't too bad although a few too many people about for my liking...
