Very effective!
I did this program about two years ago after struggling to move away from run/walk style running for years. By the end, I was running about 10:30 min mile (30 minutes total) and the habit of running I formed during this program more or less stuck. The rate at which you train during this program is just right. Laura has an encouraging and friendly voice, which makes you feel like you have a personal trainer. I enjoy her voice much, much more than the computer generated ones out there. Also, I personally really like the music. Upbeat but not obnoxious. I just picked up the series again at week 4 and am aiming to work through the runs again to try to get a bit faster. It’s nice to return to this program. I really wish she would release bi-weekly or monthly podcasts with a new routine & music mix (30 min to 60 min runs for the regular runner).

As a 47 year old who has an active job but does no other exercise, I started this podcast fearing I would fail well before the 5k point. I have now got to running 5k every other day and I feel great. The weekly steps really motivated me to continue to the end and as I feel so much fitter I now...Read full review »
