Have you been telling yourself all of lockdown that you need to start a home workout programme and it just hasn’t happened yet? Well now is your chance! Now that things are opening up, we can enjoy the sea air, sunshine and some company while running. Our Defiant team is inviting you to join us on our Couch to 5K journey. This is an incredibly detailed, progressive running programme designed to allow you to run 5km after just 9 weeks! And there is no baseline fitness needed to start. Anybody can do this! Only 3 runs are scheduled each week, and they start off super easy then each week they get a little bit tougher. Our managing director Loretta did it last March during lockdown, and she has just started it again. Here is a link to her first video on our Facebook page she made last year. Give it a watch and also check out the other ones she has posted detailing her Couch to 5k journey!
This programme is very accessible to everyone. It is a free app downloadable onto any smartphone from the App Store or Google Play. From there, you can pick from various celebrities and coaches to be your trainer while you run. There are lots of voices to choose from, making it a workout and trainer you are comfortable with.
Stay tuned on Facebook for more updates on Loretta’s progress! If you choose to join Loretta for this 9-week endeavour and want to share your progress with us, please let us know. We love to stay in touch with our community and are always keen to hear how you are staying active!
As always, stay defiant!
