How to know if I'm running 5k? I'm only on week 3, but when (if!) I get to running for 30 minutes, how will I know how far I am running?

I use a site called walkjogrun.net/ - it's free and you can map your route and work out the distance. Hope this helps.

I love tech, so I have a GPS for my Polar watch. It also maps the run on Google Maps if you want. It is a bit price and a little bulky, but the latest version is certainly smaller, if not less expensive.
Last time I forgot my GPS, in Germany, I drove the route in my hire car. This was also OK, but not any good for parks I think!!

Anything with a GPS will do the trick.

If you have a smart phone you can download a free app which tracks your distance, pace etc. endomondo, run keeper, map my run, to name just a few.

Nike+ app (free) works all that out for me.
