I'm just starting to train for a 5k. What is the best app out there for this and what was works best for motivation? Anyone else out there thinking about training for a 5k?

    Do you have any running experience? C25k (Couch to 5k) is a good beginner program if you have no running experience but I don't know if there is an app for it. Runkeeper is a pretty decent (and free) app.

    I'll be running an annual 5k in September like I have been for years. I'm more into weightlifting/bodybuilding than running but I like to run, bicycle, stair-climb, and jump rope for cardiovascular activities during the "cutting" season.
