Couch to 5K Walking Program

Join our Nine-Week Group
Couch to 5K Walking Program
Walking is great, but it isn’t always easy to get started.
This walking program will help you get started and stay with it! We have an online discussion group and will meet up for group training walks on paved trails in parks around town. You get accountability, advice, support, and more.
Have you been thinking that you would like to do a charity 5K walk, but keep putting it off? Now is the time!
Do you want to walk to improve your health, but haven’t gotten around to starting? Now is the time!
In this group we will support each other as we follow my Couch to 5K Walk plan.
The plan begins wherever you are, whether that is literally the couch or not, and gets you to walk a little farther each week until you are able to walk 5K or 3.1 miles.
The program begins Monday, March 17th and concludes with the 2025 Central Iowa Heart Walk in Ankeny on Saturday, May 17th.
