Eventually, we want you to be using a ratio, running for 5 minutes and walking for 1. This is a great ratio to maintain going forward for any mileage or time goal. You will also notice that we encourage some form of cross-training on some of your non-running days.
Cross-training activities that either work different muscles than you use on your running days or work them in different ways. Strength training is an excellent option. You could also consider swimming, yoga, core training, pilates, and a host of other options. But our first choice for your cross-training days would be strength training. Close partnerships with really cool clients let us do world-class work. Well, we have the perfect app for you.

Home : Couch to 5k Couch to 5k - Ready to Go! I often get questions like this, : "Your website, advice is great - but for someone like me, 40 pounds overweight ; though I can grasp what you are saying, it is useless.
From couch to 5k.. There are a few things you can do to make that journey a memorable one. The first thing is to set your goal. If you are really smart, you do two types of goal settings : One big goal down the road - which will be your first 5k,10k or losing 10 pounds of weight. Write it on a paper. Place it on the wall. Remember it. The other one is the daily goal. The daily goal is your friend. The stepping stone to get you out there to do your run. The 10 minutes rule means you must run 10 minutes before you can decide "not to run".
The only rules to this is : To go out and run at least 10 minutes. If 10 minutes has passed, it is perfectly ok to step inside and go on with the rest. And when you tell yourself that you only have to run 10 minutes minimum, it makes it easier to start the run : Even as a two time Olympic athlete in the 5k - I had to find ways to motivate myself to get out there every day and most days twice.
Just like you will.
