5k week 1

Hi please can you tell me how many days I should run in week 1? Thanks

You suit yourself... as long as you take at least one day of rest between each one.. Some folk run Monday, Wednesday and Friday and have the weekend off... I run Sunday, Tuesday and Friday... you fit your run pattern into your life style

Each week three runs. Always a rest day in between. Never break this rule. Other than that, organise however works for you. Some prefer regular days. I fit it around the rest of life so it varies. Also a C25k "week" can be a bit longer than 7 days. Some weeks I just couldn't manage to fit in 3 runs but if it takes 8 or 9 days that's no problem. Just never less than 6 or you are skipping rest days.

Enjoy.
