Training / Preparation

Couch to 5k

If group personal training isn't for you, we can wholeheartedly recommend the NHS 'couch to 5k' program.
This comprises a series of downloadable MP3 files which you can load onto a phone or MP3 player and will gradually get you running - going from a 'couch potato' to running 5k in just 9 weeks.
