Now that this crazy Minnesota weather has decided for the most part that it's spring, I'm looking at wanting to start a Couch to 5K. What are some good Couch to 5K apps for the iPhone?

    I like the one from Active.com. I have the paid version. You can choose from different instructors, including a zombie. I know a lot of people love the Zombie C25K app too.

    i use runkeeper - it has a few pre programmed plans, but i chose to input my own training plans. i like the flexibility, and they have really improved the interface, which i liked to begin with.

    This is the one I use too and I like it. The only downside is that if you want to repeat a day or week it doesn't allow you to. So far I haven't had to repeat so it hasn't affected me but if you think you might repeat then you might want to try another app.

    the one is have is called Couch-to-5K and it's made by Active. You can choose between 5 trainers Johnny Dead (zombie), Constance, Billie, Sergeant Block, and Pumpkin (a dog)

    I didn't do it for my 5K I just did today and I really should have. I have another one i signed up for in September and I am going to get some training in before that.
