A little confused

G’Day Everyone,

So I’m brand new to this and I can’t find a “schedule “ or anything on how this works. Could be simply that I’m a typical bloke and not looking properly lol

I’d appreciate some assistance, I even bought a new pair of runners for this

Cheers

Welcome! Search C25K on the App store. It’s the NHS one. You’ll need it for each run! Once you download that it will be clear but keep coming back here to get support, ask questions and encourage others!

I’ll look out for a post on your first run!

Hi OB11. Pretty new at this myself. Once you've downloaded the app, go through the Settings and have a look at the Discover page. Your chosen trainer's audio will talk you through each step of each session. Good luck!

Welcome to the forum and well done on your decision.

This guide to the plan is all you need to get started healthunlocked.com/couchto5... including links to app and podcasts.

You can download the podcasts from here: nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/c...

There is also a printable plan here: downloads.bbc.co.uk/scotlan...

If you look at the printed plan, don't spend too long looking ahead. Just focus on the next run. If you struggle with a particular run, you can repeat it. The best tip is not to go too fast. This is not a sprint. Run at a speed you can hold a conversation. Good luck!
