That's it! Wk1R1 in the bag.

A couple of techie type questions... I have down loaded the Podcasts for the music and prompts, but how do I play them and use the C25K app as well?

Also, I am struggling finding the Health Unlocked app on android - got it on the iPad OK, but can't find it for the phone

Thanks

Hi & welcome.😃 Well done getting started on this amazing program.

I use either the podcasts or the app. The podcasts give you a whole package - Laura’s voice telling you what to do and encouraging you with music that is the right pace for the walking /running. Otherwise you can use the app with your own music/ audio books etc. This gives you Laura’s voice coming in over your own listening materials.

Sorry, I don’t know about the app on Android- but someone else who knows will come along I’m sure.

Does that answer your question?

Enjoy your running adventure! 😄

Thanks Elfe5. I used the podcast today and thought it very good, but was hoping to record my progress on the app as well.

Congrats on starting! The android app i used is:

play.google.com/store/apps/...

It lets you play your own music, then lowers it to talk over the top when needed.

Thanks Leadfoot. I also use that. I have downloaded a HealthUnlocked app to the iPad and was looking for the same on android, but I don't think it is there.

To be honest, I'll probably stick with the Podcasts as the music worked well for me. Will try and match it up with MapmyWalk or maybe Strava later.
