We have a personal trainer ...

and her name is Laura.

We did our first session of C25K in the mist and pouring rain - I feel that shows a sort of commitment to this training!  We also completely mistimed the 5 minute warm-up walk and start of the first run so the first run started on an uphill section of our track.

One minute seemed like a very long time to run and the 90 seconds of recovery you get between your 60 seconds run is just not enough.  However, Laura is very encouraging throughout and the music that's played is not something that you would perhaps listen to for pleasure but it was good running/walking music. I was pleased that I managed to get to the end of the podcast having completed all runs/walks and, at Laura's behest, I gave myself a pat on the back.  The total time you are out is 30 minutes as you finish off with a 5 minute warm-down walk, of those 30 minutes you actually only run for 8, it felt like a lot more!!
