Welcome.

How does this group work?

This is the couch to 5km "C25K" running group. People on here are either working their way through the 9 week running program, or have 'graduated' (have run for 30 minutes three times in a week). The whole purpose of the community is to help and support each other.

We encourage you to posts your questions, ideas, ask for tips and encouragement, and generally chat about how you are progressing through the C25K program. And in return, you'll receive a huge amount of positivity, encouragement and advice.

We don't necessarily 'follow' one another or make 'friend requests' like you'd do on facebook or twitter. But if you come here regularly, we'll get to know you, and you'll get to spot the regulars.

Post often, and remember that there are no stupid questions. We are here to help you.

Q. How does this group work?

A. Beautifully.

For more detail see MarkyD 's reply. :)

You can do the Couch to 5k program without ever visiting this forum. I did, because I didn't know about it! But this is a great place to hang out as there is oodles of encouragement... Welcome aboard.

Yes, beautifully! It's a wonderful place for questions, to celebrate your achievements, to laugh and commiserate over setbacks...Enjoy!
