Doing couch to 5k

[Parrula74]

Finishing week 4 and I am determined to do it!!!! My question is: what then? Is there any other app this good that allows to listen to your music while getting messages from your trainer? Thank you!!!

Nike Run Club App, lots of runs of various times and distances to choose from with a coach to encourage you and you can listen to your own playlist too just like C25k....plus it’s free 👍

Run Zombie app is good fun too, see my previous posts for details🏃‍♂️ 🧟‍♂️

That’s a good thing, it shows your enthusiasm and that you want to make running a part of your life 👍

Welcome to the forum and well done

on your progress.

When you announce your graduation I will send you a link to a guide to post C25k running.

If you cannot wait, it is sitting in the FAQ Posts, which you will find in the Pinned Posts.

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.

I always had Spotify on the background. It worked fine.

Once you’ve finished couch to 5k you don’t need a trainer anymore. You can go for other goals but you measure it yourself. You need a garmin watch 👍🏽

It is nice to hear how long there is left to go....and to have somebody saying you are doing great...even though it is a recording...

You’ll get used to them not being there faster than you think 👍🏽
