I have the Couch 2 5K on my android phone. It's great, and gradually works up my ability to job. Great, simple, effective app. I recommend it highly.

Jeff Galloway (Google for website) books and website has been a great help for me.    Keeps me running and injury free.

 

Training for a ten miler I over trainined and did some damage - Jeff Galloway was suggested to me.  After a bit of hesitation, I gave it a go.   Very happy and back to pain free running.   BTW - I'm 65

First of all congrats for wanting to do a 5k. I am a 60year old runner and I have learned over the years of doing runs to enjoy it and picture yourself seeing the finish line. Whren traing don't over do it and keep your regular routine. Just don't eat any food you haven't tried the night before! Good luck and have fun
