It really works!!
I have never in my life ever been able to run a 5K until this app. The program increases the running time gradually and the coaches are so nice and encouraging! I completed my last run today and so happy to have achieved this!

Amazing
When I started couch to 5k running 60 seconds was exhausting for me and to now think I run 5k and I actually enjoy it, I love running now and it’s become part of my routine, I’ve just graduated and completed the program and I can’t say how glad I am that I started this, it’s changed my life, and in these 9 weeks with running and walking and eating a bit healthier I’ve lost nearly a stone! So beyond happy!!! Start now you won’t regret it!

Simple but powerful! Only App I’ve ever recommended!!
As of half an hour ago I can officially call myself a Couch to 5K graduate. This app has exceeded my expectations in the way that it works, the ease of use and the motivation that the trainers give throughout each session to keep you focused in a positive but also realistic and understandable way. The ability to set reminders for each day you are going to run and 3 runs a week (although daunting at the start) is very achievable. I was extremely unfit, very overweight and in a deep low place mentally before I started this app - I can confidently say that none of those are now true and the difference it has made to my mental health as well as my physical has been the most unexpected noticeable benefit of using this app. My only question is … what next? If you’re thinking about it this app is worth it, if you can do it, if you can achieve 9 weeks of running - the answer to all these is simply, happily and 100% - *YES!* Thank you to the developers, coaches and of course the NHS. 🏃♂️😊

Extremely well made app, the audio controls that lower your music when your trainer is speaking is very effective.

Good app, no watch version
App is good but would be brilliant if it connected to the Apple Watch and activity app.

A great way to exercise for people who are short on time and disposable income.
