Every month we are encouraging people to join our new monthly challenges! They are fun, hard and will give you a goal to focus on throughout month.

It is getting colder but that doesn't mean we should be hiding inside - We are encouraging people to get out, get some fresh air and join our couch to 5k! 

This is a 8 week plan for beginners. Be sensible and safe, if the running gets to much slow your rate down to a power walk. We suggest you to spread the sessions out throughout the week and have a rest day between each session. 

Week Session 1 Session 2  Session 3
Week 1 Run 30 seconds, walk 30 seconds - Repeat 15 times Run/Walk 10 min Walk 5 km
Week 2 Run 45 seconds, walk 45 seconds - Repeat 12 times  Run/Walk 15 min Walk 5 km
Week 3 Run 60 seconds, walk 60 seconds - Repeat 10 times  Run/Walk 20 min Walk 5 km
Week 4 Run 90 seconds, walk 90 seconds - Repeat 8 times  Run/Walk 25 min Run 1 km, walk 4 km
