Seems like Couch to 5K. How is N2R different?
  1. There is no strength and mobility component in the Couch to 5K plan.
  2. Beginner runners should run for time (not distance). N2R is time based.
  3. Couch to 5K progresses too aggressively for most people starting out.

What is None to Run?

None to Run is a running plan (and app) for people are are new to running or coming back after a hiatus.  It was created by RRCA Certified Distance Running Coach, Mark Kennedy.

If you can't currently run for more than 5-minutes straight without stopping to catch your breath, you're in the right place.

Becoming a consistent runner is hard.

You’re struggling to find the time to run. Irregular and demanding work schedules, kids and other commitments make it difficult to give running the time it needs.

You have nagging injuries that just won’t go away or experience pain when you run more than 5 or 10-minutes.

You’re constantly disappointed with your lack of progress and running just doesn’t seem to get any easier.

You get out of breath quickly and wonder why the hell you’re inflicting this pain and discomfort on yourself.

Maybe you simply fear looking “bad” when you run?

These are just a few of the struggles I hear time and time again.

Behind these struggles are the keys to more energy, happiness, weight loss, boosted self-confidence and in my opinion, a better life.

If any of this resonates, welcome!

‍

This beginner running plan will take you from ground zero, to running comfortably for 25-minutes straight.

We're not worried about how far or fast you run and neither should you be.

Today, you become a runner and in 12-weeks, a runner for life.

Ready to begin?

Questions About the 12-Week None to Run Plan

Can I perform the entire None to Run plan on a treadmill?

Yes!

Many people prefer the treadmill.

Especially in the cold winter months.

So, run wherever you can.


‍

Can I perform the entire None to Run plan on a treadmill?
When should I perform the strength workouts?

The strength workouts can be performed on any day you choose, even immediately after a run (but not before).


‍

When should I perform the strength workouts?
I also need to do strength training?

We believe that strength training is essential if you want to become a consistent runner.

This doesn't mean however, that you need to spend hours per week in the gym.

Far from it!

We include strength and mobility routines (designed specifically for running) with every running plan.

The routines can be completed in less than 15-minutes and require no equipment!

I also need to do strength training?
Week 10 looks like a HUGE jump from week 9. What's with that?!

While this does seem like a big jump on paper, it’s not actually as daunting as it seems.

In Week 9 of N2R, you’re walking for 5 minutes (warm up) and then doing a run/walk for 25-mins.

Total time = 30 minutes. In Week 10, you’re walking for 5-mins and then running for 20-mins.

So, for 9-weeks you’ve been building up strength, endurance and are accustomed to 30-minutes total time on your feet.

Week 10 jumps back to 25-minutes of time on your feet....even though you are running slowly for 20-minutes straight.

I would focus more on the total time on your feet as opposed to solely running time!

One of the N2R Facebook community member said it perfectly:

"You just need to tell yourself to start running and go until you can't anymore - your body is ready to run for 20-minutes, it's just getting your brain on board!"


‍

Week 10 looks like a HUGE jump from week 9. What's with that?!
Is it okay to repeat a particular week?

Yes!

If there is a particular week that was too challenging, listen to your body and repeat the week before progressing to the next.

Read “When Should I Repeat a Week of None to Run” to help you decide when to hold back.

Please note that there are already a couple of weeks that are already repeated to help you progress at a sustainable (and enjoyable) level.

‍

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.

‍

Why are the workouts prescribed in time instead of distance?
Do I have to run on specific days?

No!

You can do your workouts on any day (or time) you choose.

The only caveat is that you never run two days in a row.

A rest day in between is essential for beginners to help reduce the chances of injury and to allow your body to get the rest it needs.
