<p>Back by popular demand, we’re re-releasing the <strong>Start to Run</strong> series from the Women’s Running Podcast, where we’re making running simple again. Every week on Start to Run, Esther and Holly will cover a common myth, frequently asked question or tricky topic and get back down to basics. Whether you’re a seasoned runner returning from some time off or a total newbie, we’re here to help you get moving and to remind you that running doesn’t have to be complicated.</p><p><br></p><h2>Walking, ‘Jeffing’ and taking it slow</h2><p>Are you still a runner if you take walk breaks? In short, you obvs are. But in this episode we’re explaining why walking is such a fantastic run strategy and overall fitness tool. Long live Jeff, is all we have to say.</p><p><br></p><h2>Couch to 5K, yay or nay?</h2><p>We also share our thoughts on the oh-so-popular Couch to 5K app; which bits we love, and which bits we don’t love so much.
