No app, no graduation???

If I don't use the app will I not get the coveted Graduation badge???

I tried the app but there was no music. I went back to the podcasts.

The app allows you to play your own music rather than the at best questionable choices of the podcast. Graduation means finishing the programme regardless how.

Thanks Rignold.

I used the podcasts and I definitely graduated! Seriously, you're not tied to an app. The podcasts have the same timings. Some people do completely different programmes (the Zenlabs one for instance) and still graduate!

Follow the podcasts with the lovely Laura and the marmite music. When you complete all three runs of week 9 use the pinned Graduation badge post to request a shiny badge next to your name. The admin fairies will take care of the rest.

Enjoy 😃🏃🏻🏃🏼‍♀️

If you look on Google there re dozens of alternative playlists podcasts with C25k timing voiceovers. I ran the programme to the accompaniment of Aerosmith, The Beastie Boys and 80's alternative hits.

Except one day in W7 when a malfunction meant that I ran with Britney Spears.

You are not under any obligation to suffer Laura's awful music.

Yes I have music playing then it just fades when they talk.
