My first Nike Run Club coached run

[Curlygurly2]

I'm late to the party as usual, I've just done my first NRC run with Coach Bennett. I did "4 mile Head Start" as that was the distance on my HM plan today. I loved it! I kept going so I could hear what he had to say next time he popped up. He even made me laugh as he had a little argument with his sound engineer!

What are your favourite sessions? I'm looking really for some longer ones, maybe HM specific? Does such a thing exist?

Hello Curlygurly! I love 💗 CB - he’s made me laugh, swear, and probably cry during lots of different runs. There’s a vast choice to pick from, I’ve found there’s usually something that matches my needs - be it distance or time, and mood as well. One I really enjoyed is called something like just Go with Mo, Mo Farrah telling us about his life story. It’s quite a short one, but well worth a listen! All the best 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️.

I love Coach B! You laugh out loud at times 😁. He does call and return stuff sometimes so you find yourself shouting out seemingly random words as you run 🏃‍♀️🙂

He does a coached run for a mock half marathon, which is 13 km. he also does a coached run for the half marathon. Both on the NRC app

Thank you, I'll have a look for those.

I quite like them too. I think my favourites are the interval sessions rather than the long runs. It's nice letting someone else do the thinking and timing!!!

It’s a game changer. It was ridiculous before 🙄

I’m running an intervals one this morning. If I ever get out the ruddy house 🤨. “Deuces” with Coach Blue Benadaum.

It’s been teeming down with rain. Cuh 😁
