I’m a runner!

Wow, W6R3 completed this evening and was told I’m officially a runner 😃 Super happy! Just wish I knew what distance I had done, can anyone recommend a free app I could use alongside C25K for tracking my distance?

Nike runkeeper works ok for me and my phone is ancient. However, as a new graduate I love NOT measuring my distance!

Thanks, Congratulations on graduating, can’t believe I may be a graduate in just 3 weeks time, looking to join parkrun once graduated but I’ve no idea if I could run anywhere near 5k even if I can run 30 mins, so having the extra app will help me decide if I’m ready for that next step.

MapMyRun and Strava are two very popular GPS apps CouchDweller, and are pretty accurate for the most part. They both have free versions. Have fun with your running! 😀👍

25 minutes non stop that's brilliant. You should be very pleased. I used Strava, it runs along side c25k and my music with no problems. Well done you 😊
