Week 8

[Sweatinglikeafatlass]

Taken me this long to notice the chat part on the app. Loving Couch to 5km, got out of bed early this morning to start week 8, Sweating like a Fat Lass now, hence the username!! Have never run before since was at school, now 46!!! It’s never too late to start a new thing! Is there a progression app from couch to 5km? can’t bear the thought of not being able to continue but need a guiding app!!

Yes there is a 5k+ app on the Nhs website that is for people who want to continue. I am also on week 8 and planning to check them out. Seems like there is one for speed and another called Stepping Stones that I’m not sure of but will try out

Brilliant, thank you, i’ll check both those out! 😘

Hi and welcome. When you get to graduation it is advisable to spend a little time consolidating; running for 30 minutes for three times a week. The world is then your oyster!

If you look under the FAQs there is a very helpful guide to help you through the post graduation period. Enjoy 😊

Hi and welcome to the forum..

You are doing brilliantly and will soon be running for 30 minutes non-stop, I expect you can believe that now too!

All sorts of things to help with motivation by reading the posts on the forums and chatting about your own progress. We are all the same as you and will love to cheer you on as you get to Graduate the program.

There is a follow on forum too where you can get help and guidance if you want to increase your distance later on.

Good luck with Week 8...onwards and upwards 😊...
