The Couch to 5K running program is a tried and tested plan that has turned thousands of couch potatoes into runners in just nine weeks. Following this plan you will work out three times per week for about 30 minutes per session. You will begin with walking and gradually add more running until you are able to run 5 Km, or 3 miles, nonstop. The program's gradual progression makes it failproof for anyone willing to put in three 30-minute runs per week.
From the Couch to 5K guides you through this program. It goes beyond simply telling you how far to run each session, giving you advice on how to tackle each session and how to stay motivated through the nine-week program.
At the end of the Couch to 5K program you will be ready for your first 5K race, or you can simply use your newfound fitness to run on a regular basis. For those looking to run 10K, half-marathons and marathons, the Couch to 5K program provides the base training you will need before starting your event training.
