Ask HN: How did you train for your first 5k/10k?
I’m new to running and am curious what you have found to work when starting out?
- ssss11 3y agoMy wife used a free technique called something like “couch to 5k” which works well. It get you to progressively improve from a short distance up to 5k - google it and take a look. Best of luck.

It's a well-done story to help make fitness more like a fun game. Running from zombies to help save the world can be quite motivating and enjoyable. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zombies-run-5k-training/id566596422 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zombies-run-5k-training/id5665... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sixtostart.zombies5ktraining https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sixtostart...
