About this Event
Don’t worry – our Couch to 5K training plan won’t expect you to run as hard as you can from the off. Instead, it starts with a series of run-walk intervals to get you moving gradually and pressure-free. As you progress through the six weeks of the plan, you’ll spend less time walking and more time running until you find that you can complete the full 5K distance non-stop.
It may seem counterintuitive to spend some time walking when the big goal is to get running. However, when we start running, our body needs time to adapt to the new demands we’re placing on it. As such, by adding short, structured walk breaks into Couch to 5K sessions, we can safely increase our running volume at a sensible pace.
