Last night I ran the first run of week 9 and for the first time I really enjoyed it ( well I liked the feeling of achievement at the end). I went on a different route which helped and, amazingly I even ran up a hill that 9 weeks ago I struggled to walk up. Apart from the one hill most of the route was down hill or flat so according to the app I ran 5.68k including the 10 mins walking. How accurate is the app when it comes to distance?

Which app are you using? For distance gps, I used to use runtastic but there are many other good running gps apps for free. Not long to graduation now 😀.

I’m using Nike run club and the fitness app that was already installed on the phone. Probable not very accurate.

I would maybe look at a free running GPs app. There is. Runkeeper, runtastic, mapmyrun, endomodo, and probably quite a few more.
