Because of my ADHD the distraction would mean I'd focus on the fatigue etc so I need something like that - I usually listen to Radio 2 podcasts instead of music so I can zone in on the conversation. The running app works on top of it so it's all good. I tend to run through local villages and towns, fields etc and can't rely on lamp-posts.
It's certainly working, On each session I'm running for a total of between 16-18 minutes which is pretty good when you consider at the end of april I'd struggle to make 7 minutes. Funnily enough the month I turn 38 sees me in the fittest and healthiest shape I've been in for about 10-15 years. I moved to Leicester over 2 years ago and my weight crept up and couldn't shift it. A radical change of domestic situation and lifestyle sees me making gains I couldn't imagine achieving even a few months ago
