    Hey Danni - have you got an mp3 player? You can download the mp3 C25K program onto it and give it a crack .
    Its bizarre to listen too, they guy speaking tells you when to run and when to walk with music in the background, but hey - it'll help you get to 5k's....
    (I'm fairly sure I remember you posting a thread about the c25k program?)
    Yeah I've got the C25K and have tried it. I didn't find it helped me to actually jog properly. But thanks for reminding me about my MP3 player...I need to charge it before I go to the gym. (it charges by USB on the computer... a little annoying that I can only charge it that way).

    Oh, I've got this other thing called a tabata clock which is good for short burst exercises (like jogging on the spot, skipping, plank, mountain climbers etc). It's just a thing that counts down "three, two, one" and then a bell goes off and that's when you start your exercise. The default timer will stop after 20 seconds with a big buzzzzz and then you get a 10 second break before starting again. If anyone wants the website pm me.
