I have Zenlabs C25k. Its free and it does what it's supposed to do. plus it vibrates my phone so i can feel when to start and stop.0

Personally I used the NHS C25K podcasts alongside Runkeeper to track performance.
There was coaching on there about form which was helpful.0 -
I used the rundouble app. At some point, I think I was able to buy all the plans up to a half marathon for $3.99. Endomondo tracks your runs and let's you program intervals, so that might be one stop shopping. I've been getting a lot out of the strava app, but it does not let you program intervals.0

I use Run Double. You can do a timed programme of C25k or a distance one. I found with the timed one I'm no where near 5k when I complete a 30 min run so the distance one was better for me. I got mine for £1.99 as it was buy one get one free would otherwise have been £2.99. Several programmes you can follow so once you're done with C25k you can progress to a 10k or improve your 5k time, do a half and full marathon. As well 'fun runs' and open runs. Also links to your music player and has various interval announcements which are optional.0

I used a free HIIT app and put in the running intervals, and then use endomodo (or something similar) to track speed. I just really didn't feel like spending money, and since the times are online I figured why not?0

I used the 5k101 podcast along with MapMyRun. I liked his coaching and the rate of increases for the runs. Just going now to download the 10k training!0

I use both NHS podcast and Robert Ullrey from C25k.com on my small MP3. I don't like to carry my phone. I run/walk/shuffle a large loop which is never any more than half a mile from my home. Once the weeks progress I will change to my own music with the upbeat for running and slow tempo for the walk cooldown parts.
