1st run!

[Peepsmummy]

I've just dusted off my new trainers that have been iin the box for about 6 months and completed Run 1 of Week 1. I was so nervous that I would fail (sometimes I was as slow as a snail), but now I feel very proud of myself and am looking forward to Monday's run. A question though, I cant get the music to play?!

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

There is no music on the app. You need to play mp3s or stream to get music.

There is music on the podcasts........but not to everybody's taste.

It is impossible to fail at this plan unless you head permanently back to the couch.

Enjoy your journey.

Hi. What music are you trying to play? I just turn my Spotify on and then start the run and it talks over my songs.

When you started running failure was already beaten. Welcome to the forums, come chat to us lots. If for any reason you don’t complete a given run, what you did run makes you fitter and stronger for the next time... so smile and repeat it next time out. You can do this. Enjoy your journey

Hey, don’t worry about being a snail 🐌 ! Even snails get to where they need to go!

You have just done the hardest thing by completing your first run. Brilliant!

You can get music to play over the C25k app, the music just mutes whilst the coaches talk. I had Amazon music, the C25k app and Strava all running simultaneously on my iPhone.

Happy running 😊🏃‍♀️
