Hi everyone,

After nearly 3 years of running (started off doing C25K), I have finally persuaded my husband to buy a pair of cheap running shoes and begin his C25K journey!

However, he wants to run with me, so how do we organise it? Do I do the programme myself with him again, or do I run the minute running sections at the start with him, and when he is asked to walk, I continue running, but come back each time, to the point where he starts running again! (does that make sense????)!

Anyone else been in this situation?

Many thanks,

Mandy

Good on him. Certainly in the early weeks you could do a mini fartlek on them, in a few weeks he will be just running and you’ll be fine.

Sounds a good idea, many thanks

I did one run each week with my husband and we did our own thing on the other days. It was fun but tbh I prefer running on my own (don’t tell him)

On my first week my wife ran for 20 minutes before joining me for my 60 second walk / run where we were then both ran or moved at the same speed. Seemed to work.
