Hi, kind of a silly question...but I have bad eyesight and my biggest challenge with C25 is that I can't read a watch when I'm running without stopping and squinting. Any suggestions?

    Can you get the app on your phone? Mine tells me when its time to run, walk, etc. so you dont have to look down at all

    Great idea. I'll check it out. Can you hear it if you're listening to music, etc., or does it just vibrate?

    The one I have is called Run 5K. It works great and runs your playlist from the app. Tells you when to walk/run, but be sure you have the app's notifications on and your phone is not on silent mode. I've done that before, oops. :)

    Good luck!

    I have couch to 5k by felt tip inc. it has audio to tell you whe. To walk, run, half way and a minute left. As well, you can control your music from the program. And it is a lot less than a new watch.
