What is C-2-5K?


C25K is a well-known program that’s been designed to get just about anyone from the couch to running 5 kilometers or 30 minutes in just 9 weeks.

It's even been called "couch potato to five-k" by some people!

The secret sauce to C-2-5K is that it gently (yet progressively) introduces your body to movement.

You begin by alternating between walking and running small distances...

... slowly building up until after 8 weeks, you’re ready to run 5 kilometers or 30 minutes non stop.


With the program, you can transition from the couch to completing a 5K run. It's designed to be-- 

🎉 Fun

📈 Intentionally incremental as it you continue 

💜 Safe

Although the program is structured to accommodate beginners, everyone’s health and physical condition is unique, and what works for one person might not work for another-- so consult your health provider.


Remember, too, that you don't have to run the 5K just because you choose to do the "couch to 5K."

In fact, our goal is to see more people move and make it the entire distance...

... regardless of the pace you choose. 

We're going to shine a light on suicide prevention, we're going to empower some great programs in our area to make a difference, and we're going to have fun doing it-- together.
