If you are here, you probably are a new runner and curious about the Couch 2 5k running program.

What is Couch 2 5K

To put it simply, it is a running program that focuses on building your ability via a run/walk cycle that gradually increases over the course of nine weeks.

There are many programs out there to choose from and we have linked a popular one in the community sidebar.

A great deal of people have used this program to get into running and progress up in distance.

What to post

  • Progress reports as you move through the program
  • Questions about the program and running in general
  • Race reports, accomplishments, and other running related achievements.
  • Selfies if you so desire.

What not to post

  • Asking for advice on injury (other than recovery related). We do realize that everyone may not have access to a Doctor but we have seen too much bad advice over the years that we’d prefer that the diagnoses are handled by professionals.
