Hi there,

A question for you guys.

I am actually following Couch to 5k on a treadmill, not outdoors, and now into Week 2. Does it matter?

Thanks,

Honey

Quote lifted from guidance from mentor IannodaTruffe “Treadmill running is fine for those who prefer to be indoors. It is recommended that you set the treadmill to an incline of 1 degree, at least, to simulate running outdoors, otherwise the transition to outside running can seem extremely difficult, when the glorious day comes, although you may want to continue running on the treadmill, which is fine. Running is running, wherever you do it.”

Well done getting through W1. Wait until you get to half way, you won't believe your progress.
