Couch to 5K

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed and see some of my favourite posts! Thanks for visiting!

In a moment of madness I decided that I would try out the Couch to 5K running program.  C25K is a running program that has been designed to get just about anyone from the couch to running 5 kilometers or 30 minutes in just 9 weeks.

I’ve always been one of those people who say things like “I can’t run. “It will bugger my knees.” Or some other excuse. So I have decided that instead of saying I can’t, I will just have a go and do it. I’ll keep you updated on my progress.

I found some helpful podcasts here that provide some background music and instructions for while you are jogging. There is a different podcast for every week of the program.

If you are interested, a metric version of the program can be found here.
