Run your first 5K, guided every step. First Run is the 9-week Couch to 5K coach that turns "I've never run before" into "I just finished my first 5K." Press play and follow the plan. Everything else is handled for you. A REAL PLAN, NOT A TIMER The classic Couch to 5K progression: three sessions a week for nine weeks. Each workout breaks down into clear walk and run intervals, so you can see exactly what's coming before you start. By Week 9 you're running 30 minutes straight. APPLE WATCH READY Start a run from your wrist and leave the phone at home. Heart rate, GPS route, distance, pace and calories live on the watch. Every workout saves automatically to Apple Health so it stacks alongside the rest of your activity. Pause, resume or skip from the watch, the Lock Screen Live Activity, or the Dynamic Island. They all stay in sync. A FINISH LINE YOU CAN SEE Every completed workout stacks into a streak you can scroll. Earn badges along the way: First Steps, Hitting Your Stride, Five-K Club. Share any run as a card to friends or social. ALWAYS ONE TAP AWAY Home Screen widget showing your next run. Watch face complication keeping today's session a glance away. Lock Screen Live Activity and Dynamic Island while you're out there. The app gets out of the way; the running stays the point. ADAPTS TO REAL LIFE Took a week off? First Run notices and offers to realign your schedule around today, so you pick up where you left off instead of falling off the plan. Rest days are part of training, not failures. VOICE GUIDANCE A real voice in your ear announces every interval, like "Start running for 60 seconds" or "Walk for 90 seconds", so you never have to look at your phone mid-run. Audio ducks your music only while speaking, then steps out of the way. Pre-recorded clips, no robotic text-to-speech. WHAT'S INCLUDED • 9-week Couch to 5K plan, three sessions a week • Walk + run interval timer with on-screen progress ring • Full Apple Watch app with heart rate, GPS route, distance, pace, calories • Apple Health workout sync • Live Activity on Lock Screen and Dynamic Island • Home Screen widget + watch face complication • Smart Stack workout widget with working pause / resume • Achievement badges + full run history • Share card for every completed run • Pre-recorded voice cues • No account required Get to your first 5K.
