C25K draining battery...help!

Hello!

Has anyone used the C25K app on their i phone 5? It seems to be draining my battery in less than the 30 min workout. Battery was 99% full when i left and it died during the last 5 minutes of the 30 min workout. I did not have any other apps running besides Spotify , which was playing downloaded songs. Anyone else have this issue? I read that turning off the GPS for the app helps a lot but I don;t think the version I have even uses GPS? I went into the privacy menu on my phone to location services, and the app is not even listed as using GPS. Hoping someone has a solution because I just finished my week 2 day 1 and I really want to stick with it as this app makes it really easy, Thanks!

    Which app are you using? Maybe just that app takes more battery? I am no techy so I really have no idea how things work. I used Run Double along with Run Keeper and Pandora and my battery would get pretty low in a run, but never died completely.
