in Fitness and Exercise
Sorry if this has been asked a thousand times but....

Is this something you do everyday or other day? I've had a look on a website and all it gives is a timetable of times & whether to run or walk! I want to give this a try starting monday, but I work most days starting a 5am so will need to put it somewhere in my schedule.

Thanks Katy x

    You do it at least every other day. It's not recommended to do it in consecutive days. I'm on week 4 of c25k (woo!) and I do it MWF. but since you mentioned that might not work for you, you could do tuesday-thursday-saturday maybe? You can definitely add in other exercises the other days, like strength training and cardio. good luck with it! I've loved it so far and I can't wait to run an official 5k!
