The secret to getting fit for free is to use every opportunity to be active - 2


Couch to 5K

Couch to 5K (C25K) is a free running plan developed to help absolute beginners get into running. Running is great for weight loss, improving heart and lung function, strengthening bones and giving you a general sense of wellbeing. C25K was developed by a novice runner who decided to write a plan to help his fifty-something mum get off the couch and start running too. The plan involves three runs a week, with a day of rest in between each, with a different plan for each of the nine weeks.  NHS Choices has developed its own set of free C25K podcasts to help you to achieve your running goal.
