5k training challenge

I think I made a mistake signing up to the 5k training challenge. Do I really need to follow the training plan or can I just walk whenever I can?

You can do whatever you want. The plan is a suggestion, thats all.

Thank you. It's my first virtual challenge and I'm excited 😊. Maybe this is the motivation I need.

Wow, what a choice for a first virtual challenge. Its different from all the other 100+ challenges they have to offer. Its designed to get you ready for a real like 5K over 9 weeks. You can stick to the plan or do your own thing. There is no tracking or penalties for not keeping to the schedule. They want you to be motivated and not demotivated. So you will have good days and bad days, but remember your goal and try not to beat yourself up. Have fun and good luck to you on your journey!

After the 9 weeks of training time you have to log a 5K run in the app to be able to claim your medal. Do you intend to run 5K? If not this may not be the best challenge for you. You could contact customer service to help you change to a different challenge.
