Can anyone explain Couch to 5K week 2 please?
Hi, I'm returning to running after a gap of some 10 years or so and thought I'd start with Couch to 5k.
I've done the first week and my next run will be from week2.
What puzzles me is that they say "you will alternate 90 seconds of running, with 2 minutes of walking, for a total of 20 minutes".
It's not a big deal but I can't make any combination of 90 seconds running and 2 minutes of walking make 20 minutes
TIA,
Mikey

- 5 repeats makes a total of 17.5 minutes
- 6 repeats makes a total of 21 minutes
TIA,

You're right that it doesn't make much of a difference, but it's a pretty interesting typo as I've seen it posted in multiple places.
I hope week 2 goes well for you, good luck!
