Anna,

I found a C25K download that is only a computer generated voice with the run/recover prompts for each week. I cant remember if it was itunes or on the net. Net I think. I downloaded it into garageband & mixed my own workout music from itune collection & tracks for each week. I've really enjoyed it. Most of the others are real good, just not my kind of music seems like. Just a thought...TJ

I used the iphone app C25K by Alex Stankovic because I could play my own music and it cues you what to do all the way through. I used it successfully in 2009 to finish C25K and am using it again started today with W1D1.

I agree with everybody about the app, well worth $2.99 and works great with your ipod touch. Just in case here is the link.

I have the Old Time Ipod classic

That is what my boyfriend bought me instead of the touch Ipod.

I use the Couch to 5K app (Felt Tip, Inc) It was the first one I found and didn't realize that there were others available. This app looks brown. There is another one that is green that has a facebook update feature. Search the itunes store for "C25K" and you will get several hits.

The pod runner interval pod cast is what took me through the C25K program. Easy to follow good beat music that is free no need to pay. They also have other mixes on there for longer runs etc...My wife and sister just started the program and are through week one and both have enjoyed it so far.

I agree with Mandi and Tracy!!

The C25K app is ABSOLUTELY worth the $2.99!!! I used to carry a little index card with me so I knew when to run and when to walk, but it was so frustrating to always be staring at the time. It made me feel like I was running forever!!

The app lets you play your own music, then sounds a little "alert" to let you know when you are warming up, then tells you to run or walk, lets you know which run you are on, alerts when you have 2 or 1 minutes left, lets you know when you are halfway done (all these are options that you can change if you don't want to hear the alerts, but I have found them to be SOOOO motivating and helpful)!!

It's especially nice when you're running on the road because you don't have to worry about trying to figure out how long it's been, you just listen for the cues!!

Please definitely download this and let us know if you've found it helpful, as I certainly have!!
