Very new, week 2 run 2 done so far but wanted to ask, can I play music while having the coach speaking over the top?

Yes you can have music 🎶 while your coach speaks, the music fades when he coaches you

Yes you can. Just start Spotufy or whatever first and then start the C25K app after. The music will be turned down when the coach speaks.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

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

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.

Yes it’s very clever and the music fades out a bit when the coach is speaking (doesn’t pause tho)
