Customer Feedback:
"The popular Couch to 5K app helps new runners avoid injury from doing too much, too soon."
—Runners World, June 2012
"It's ridiculously easy to use (it's hard not to, as you just do what you're told) and it's fantastic that you have an encouraging voice talking you through things."
—Engadget, June 2012
"Active.com’s Couch to 5K is one of my favorite… apps. With its customizable features, interactivity, and well-rounded interface, I may actually stay off the couch this time."
—148Apps, October 2011
"I knew as soon as I decided to start the Couch to 5K program that I would need something to keep me accountable—not just to showing up for my training, but to actually doing it properly. Of course there’s an app for that."
—CalorieLab, April 2012
"If you have been struggling to get your buns off the couch and somewhat in shape before the summer hits, training for a 5K is not a bad way to start. If you are looking for a program to help get you there, then the “Couch to 5K” running plan by CoolRunning is probably your best bet if you haven’t done an ounce of athletic activity for a number of years."
—Droid Life, April 2012

Note:
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
The Couch to 5K coach you select talks to you during your workouts. To save your battery, Couch to 5K sends audio notifications when your screen is locked or another app is in use.
To be sure you hear the coach during your workout, please do the following:
• Turn on Notifications permissions
• Turn on the hardware ring/silent switch (no red showing)
• Turn your ringer volume up
• Turn off Do Not Disturb (swipe up for Control Panel and the moon button should not be white)
• Within the app, in Settings > Workout Options, be sure the Trainer Volume is up
Without granting notification permissions, during a workout you can click the lock icon at the top left to keep the app active and still hear the coach.
For support please contact us at: [email protected] We would love to hear from you.
Once you purchase the app, it is yours to keep. It does not expire after 9 weeks.

LIFE CHANGING

Happy YouTube on

i don’t use the phrase “life changing” lightly. this got me from not running at ALL, as in 0 running ever, to waking up at 6:15 to squeeze in a run every morning. great app, simple to follow, really eases u in!

Issues with settings

It keeps saying my state or province is invalid but I live in Hong Kong and my address is correct. I don't live in America so I can't put in a U.S state. Please fix this issue.

Great app!

Great app, but having to carry my phone is reason for star removed.

Really good, but not great.

B Whitey on

As a former fitness professional who is returning to running after injury, this app does a great job of progressing someone from potato to runner … until week five that is. The jump is too much that week. I find it odd how the app makes incremental increases for the first four weeks but then in week five has you going from two 8s with a 5 minute walk to one 20 minute run. That’s a heck of a jump. Also, a three or five second countdown to begin the next interval would be a great improvement.

Great motivational running app!

I use this app to get myself to run. Hard to get myself started without the app, but with it, I am excited to go because it paces me.

This app saved my life.

It's taken me more than 10 years of on/off starts to become proficient at jogging. I was just about as atrophied and out of shape as you could be. In fact, I've never really worked out or dieted in my whole life, with the results you might expect, but this app has always patiently been there to help me get back on the horse. With just this app and 75 Hard I managed to lose 60 lbs -- 260 down to 200, in 5 months. Got off a bunch of meds, new clothes, new life. Either you want it or you don't. Andy Frisella's right. No excuses. Accept accountability and change if and when you want!
