Get Running with PodRunner

About 7 months ago I moved house and — as expected — things got in the way and I stopped my reg­u­lar exer­cise ses­sions. Ever since I’ve been mean­ing to get back into a seri­ous exer­cise reg­i­men and today is when I do.

I play squash reg­u­larly and love to swim and cycle… but I can’t run to save my life!  I’ve decided this has to change, and through a bit of lucky Google search­ing I found a cou­ple of run­ning web­sites I read a long time ago.

I present to you:

• Couch-to-5K Inter­val Train­ing Pro­gram — a train­ing pro­gram designed to intro­duce begin­ners to inter­val train­ing. After 9/10 weeks, you should be run­ning 5K.
• PodRun­ner: Inter­vals Pod­casts — great moti­va­tional music, mixed and designed exactly around the couch-to-5K program.

With the above two resources (and a good pair of run­ning shoes), I should be back to my old fit­ness level in no time.
