Thank you Richard, I had a look at that one but it looks like it's iphone only? (there's a link to the app store but not to google play) I'm not an iperson so need something that's available on android.

We have android, HTC (I never touch Apple ) so it should be there :think:


edit:

Yep, just checked, search in Play Store on your phone for c25k free

Hi everyone I've just joined c25k too. Got it into my head then bought a new (decent) sports bra and an armband for my phone. Not exactly money saving but will still be cheaper overall than joining a gym. I downloaded the app and went straight to the park to complete my first run. Even though it was only 25 mins with 6 1min runs I still feel pleased with myself and glad I've begun! It's even spurred me on to do some gardening!

I haven't run since Tuesday, blister is still there, and due to poor shoes choice and Reading festival yesterday I have even more!! Going to try and get out tomorrow morning though, as I'm keen to get W8 completed.


Welcome to all the new people too!

Have you tried the compeed blister plasters? I tend to get blisters incredibly easily and I found that they help protect the blister and ease the discomfort. That said, I'm usually rubbish about blisters and end up taking a pin to them - I know they say you shouldn't and there are probably very good reasons why it is a bad idea, but I am borderline compulsive about it.

OK- can someone please explain to me in a VERY simple way how to download the running app on Samsung Galaxy S4 mini?

Please keep i mind I have never downloaded any app so have no idea where to go (on phone or on computer)?

Anyone patient enough?

Thanks a million....
