I am on week 8 r2 and I must admit to like the the Laura intervention during my runs letting me know my times etc after graduation is there another app or program I can use in a similar vein.

Hi nellanamron , depends exactly what you want.

You can set the free version of Strava, and doubtless other apps, to announce when you've run 1km, or other distances. Nike Run Club, also free, does audio-coached runs which lots of people enjoy, though I personally was happy to ditch guided runs after C25K.

Whatever you choose, don't forget to consolidate after C25K rather than trying to increase run duration or pace right away.

Enjoy completing!

Try Ju Ju's Magic 10 plan, it's not an app but a training program a little like C25K.

I've been using run keeper at the same time as strava. I recommend using the boston fan voice on run keeper, it's almost like having bill burr in my ear telling me when I've run 1km and he tells me my time and pace, tou can set it however you want.

I use strava to log my runs, I look at that when I'm finished

I've been using runkeeper - it's a free app and you can set it to tell you time and distance as you run. When you finish it shows you the route plus other useful/interesting bits of information. I think there are other similar apps but this one works for me
