C25K® is the easiest program to get beginners from couch potatoes to 5K distance runners in 8 weeks.

The proven C25K program was designed for inexperienced runners who are just beginning. The plan's structure prevents new runners from giving up and challenges them to continue moving forward. C25K works because it starts with a mix of running and walking, gradually building up strength and stamina.

UPDATED Sep 23: Bit of a shame you can only access the first few sessions for free now. This app (in combination with a great running playlist) gives me exactly the motivation to get out there and get moving - it starts with small achievable chunks and challenges you to push a little further than you usually would. I'm really impressed with the app's methodology, attractive design and unobtrusive advertising. Amazing.

Super invasive, app attempts to track you at all times even when you're not using it. It also tries to access all your photos, files, contacts and accounts. This level of device/account infiltration is totally unjustified and unacceptable for the functions the app actually performs. I turned all these functions off but then the app was continually attempting to turn them back on. Beside all this the app works and functions well, but it's one to be wary of from a privacy/security standpoint.

This little app got me running. It probably isn't the most feature rich C25K out there, but it doesn't need to be. I can play music in a separate app, turn this on, lock the screen, and obey the reassuring voice telling me to walk and run. I recommend this over starting cold turkey - this is far less discouraging and far more likely to last.
