A little question.....

I'm on week 8 and would love to know how far I'm actually running, pace etc? Can I use another app like strava at the same time? If so, how does that work if I'm walking at both the start and finish? Sorry, not very techno!

What phone do you have? I use the Samsung Health app on my Galaxy. Tells me everything I need to know and gives me a map of where I've run. I have about 3-4 apps running while using C25k but think it will depend on your phone as to how well it copes! A lot of people use Strava and Map.my run while they are using the C25k app.

Thank you. I've got a Samsung too. Didn't even think of looking at that app. Will give it a go!!

Yes you can use Strava at the same time. In fact any of the tracking apps can do the same.

When I got to the straight running weeks I only recorded the run parts.

Cheers! I take my glasses off for running so it's a little awkward to try and operate my phone lol at the same time!

Not what you're looking for?
