Why are the workouts prescribed in time instead of distance?

When you're just getting started as a runner, your body doesn't know how far you ran.

It only knows that you that you were on your feet for a certain amount of time.

When running for distance, beginner runners often feel pressure to cover a certain distance in a certain time.

This creates bad running habits that can lead to burnout, injury and less enjoyment.

Tina Watson

When I came back to running again, I decided that I would try the Couch to 5k to get my fitness back....I didn't get on with that AT ALL, I found it really tough. I looked through the internet and came across None2Run and there was a PDF which I printed out and followed.

Anna

N2R gave me the motivation I was looking for which I am very grateful for.

Karen

To anyone considering the N2R programme, my advice is 'go for it!' - l only wish I had known about it sooner, it really has helped to change my life.

Mary Owens

As a person that is big on diversity, I love that the program is for everyone - whether you’re new to running or an experienced runner.

I am so grateful for you, Mark, and this app and for the None to Run community for their constant encouragement. Although we all have never met and live in different parts of the world, everyone is so positive and inspiring.

Emily Shuman

Just do the run, make time to love yourself, and focus on how it makes you feel mentally rather than how things look on a scale.

A Running App for Real People

In order to become a runner, you don't need much in order to become successful: a plan, an encouraging community and consistency. With N2R, you can have them all.

Works Around your Schedule

Time is hard to come by. Kids, work, and other commitments can get in the way. You need a plan that's easy to follow and can work around you, not the other way around.

Break down the lies you tell yourself

You look "weird" when you run. You’re “not” a runner. You’re too “slow” or too "Old." We're here to tell you right here, right now, that you’re wrong. You only *think* these things because it's new and you feel uncomfortable. That'll change with consistency and time. You are a runner!

Exercise Smarter, not harder

It may have been hard previously, but it doesn't have to be – now, you'll be given the tools and the knowledge to succeed. We’re doing things differently in order to see different results.

N2R Eases you in

Running when you aren't ready or without the proper training can hurt, leaving you with nagging injuries that never seem to clear up. We ease you in, giving you the strength and conditioning you need to make sure your running doesn't come with pain.
