im using my phone when running at the minute to play my playlist and use my timer for switching between running and walking what i would really like to have is my music playing 90 secs for my run then for the song to change after 120s for the walk - has anyone got an easy way of doing this - it means i wont have to keep looking at the timer i'll know when the music changes its time to walk or run

    Hey, I have been using the NHS C25k podcast, the girlie tells you when to run and when to walk- love it! The only thing is it isnt your own music, but i found that ok personally.
    I know there are other podcasts that you can have the same thing- a trianer telling you when to run and when to walk and you can listen to your own music.
    If you look at the top of this forum, i think there is a pinned discussion about apps/podcasts.

    GoodLuck!

    I've been using the free NHS podcasts, I really loved the way the narrator, Laura, encourages you and tells you how far along you are and what is left.

    I decided I really wanted to move on to my own music. Now I use jog.fm so I get my own music, which it matches to my speed (approximately) and then I use MapMyWalk to tell me intervals of time. :-)
