The Couch to 5k running app is available to download on any Iphone or Ipod for the low cost of $2.99. It is an innovative way to maintain consistent workouts by using your favorite technology.
“I have used this app before and noticed a total difference in my running endurance and body,” said Haley Harrison, sophomore nursing. “I just started to use the app again because I forgot how much I loved it and how easy it is to use.”
According to the creators of the app this is a 3-day-a-week workout program spanning 9 weeks culminating in your ability to run a full 5 km or 3.1 miles.
The app begins with a warm-up phase and then tells you when to begin running or walking. You can even use your personal music while using the app on your Iphone or Ipod.
“I have never been that great of a runner but with the interval training that my Iphone app gives me is what really makes it possible to run about 3 miles without stopping” said Haley Harrison.
