Feeling positive about all this now although tired!

Curious about how far I'm actually running, how do you all track your distance as well as go through C25K?

Go to the Android app store and click or tap "Playstore" just noticed that there is a updated version brand new.

Yup, MapMyRun seems to be accurate on distances.

I used my Fitbit at first as it was linked to the gps on my phone but it was unreliable, finally binned the fitbit and husband bought me a Garmin. For the first few runs I tracked using the Garmin and Map my Run just to make sure it tracked properly (husband laughed as the Garmin has built in gps but I didn't trust it!) It tracked properly every time and matched the Map my Run so now I just use it.

Thanks all I used the mapmyrun app and it worked well. But lol now I know how far away I am from 5k!!!

Wk7R2 covered 3.2km in the 25 mins and the pace bit was 7.45 overall. And I'm knackered!!!!
