Laura's voice with my own music?

Hi. Does anyone know if it is possible to have Laura's voice with my own music. I've had a bit of a setback with my running, which had been going really well up to the 25 min runs. I'm going back to repeat earlier weeks to try an rebuild but don't think I can bear the music again. Can anyone help?

Apparently, this is possible with the c25k app. You can play your music and get Laura's words. BUT: word of warning. Other posters here have reported problems with the app such as the timer not working, or not being able to unlock all the weeks.

I use the app and my own music on an iPhone but once I've put my music on (not using the wee icon on c25k - didn't seem to work right- but by going to music icon on 'desktop') always go straight back to the c25k app to check the time as I did get a time glitch once when I forgot.

I use the app with my own music, but I use spotify so not sure if that makes a difference. It has worked fine for me and I much prefer it.

How do you do it?

My phone is an older model so I can't use the app. But I edited Laura's original mp3s and then cut and paste her encouragements and timestamps into my own music - not easy but worth it in the end.
