Week 2 run 2

Got an iPod to take running and downloaded C25k. Worked but there was no music. So much harder to run without the music. Laura's voice came across loud and clear. Any ideas?

Discovered the iPad and iPod version is different to android on my phone. I can play my own music and listen to Laura -bonus.

On my iPod there is a little musical note that you can press to put your own music on. You can also press the home button and go onto the music app, then go back onto c25k, and the timer still runs. Hope that helps.

Or you can download the podcasts as mp3 files from the NHS website. That way you get both Laura and the eclectic music mix.

Can you play your own music at the same time? It may depend on the age of the iPod.

I preferred the podcasts nhs.uk/Livewell/c25k/Pages/... to the app every time. Some moan and whinge about the music but it's good to have the beat to run to and you can play your own music any other time.

Not what you're looking for?
