So, I have always wanted to learn how to run but have never been able to figure out how to do it. I always figured that you just put one foot in front of the other and kept moving, but that just doesn't seem to work for me! At the suggestion of most of the runners I know, I have downloaded the app C25K. It promises to have you running 5km's in 8 weeks if you follow the training program which prompts you to warm up, jog, walk and cool down - all with your own music in between. Sounds pretty good... if I can stick to it! The program requires you to exercise three times per week which sounds doable.

My goals are to increase my fitness, lose weight and have some time to myself.

Has anyone used this app, or is anyone tempted to do the program with me? We could offer each other some support and encouragment??
