Hi there

I have the NHS C25K change for life app on my phone, is this the one you have? If so, it's just Laura talking so you can play your own music as you run.

If you want music you press the music symbol at the bottom and then choose your own playlist. I don't think there is any music on the app itself unfortunately, there maybe another phone app you can download with preset music on it... Maybe others can advise?

Hope that helps :)

The music is on the Podcasts, the app is just for the talking as rebby said. If you get the Podcasts from iTunes it has the C25K music too which is the default stuff. Good luck!

Hi rebby is right. The app doesn't come with music: you can make up your own playlist from music stored on your phone. Alternatively, download the free podcasts if you would prefer a readymade playlist. Pros and cons -

Apparently, users have reported problems with the app in that the timing function doesn't work properly.

The music choice on the podcasts is hit and miss. But you only have to stick with each week once :-)

Thanks for this, I downloaded the podcast and was good to go this morning :)

I started c25k last year, it was "good" to hear the music...at least I know it is timed properly, I would spend ages sorting out a playlist myself.

Thanks for the replies
