5K from RunDouble Couch goes to 5K app out of any other couch! It’s a complete training companion, starting from the couch to the 5K plan and taking you up to the half marathon.
Couch from 5K by RunDouble is the easiest way to meet your goal, to run 5K in just 9 weeks, but don’t despair, you can take longer if you need to. It follows the popular Couch to 5K plan, (don’t get confused with the alternative C25K plan), written by Josh Clark.
You choose the speed – from a gentle jug to a quick run and progress in your leisure weeks. Run three times a week, with rest days, and soon you will call yourself a runner. Put on your headphones, choose your own music and just follow the requests. Starting with just 1 minute of running at a time, it can’t be easy.
Couch to 5K is growing as fast as a workout like Zumba, simply because of the number of people who are turning their lives around. No gym fees, no expensive equipment, no special diet. You are just you, your phone and the road. Get out of there, get a couch on 5K and fit yourself.
Rundable now supports Android Wear, meaning you have stats on your wrist – no more heavy phone holders.
