What is None to Run?

None to Run is a running plan (and app) for people are are new to running or coming back after a hiatus. It was created by RRCA Certified Distance Running Coach, Mark Kennedy.

If you can't currently run for more than 5-minutes straight without stopping to catch your breath, you're in the right place.

Becoming a consistent runner is hard.

You’re struggling to find the time to run. Irregular and demanding work schedules, kids and other commitments make it difficult to give running the time it needs.

You have nagging injuries that just won’t go away or experience pain when you run more than 5 or 10-minutes.

You’re constantly disappointed with your lack of progress and running just doesn’t seem to get any easier.

You get out of breath quickly and wonder why the hell you’re inflicting this pain and discomfort on yourself.

Maybe you simply fear looking “bad” when you run?

These are just a few of the struggles I hear time and time again.

Behind these struggles are the keys to more energy, happiness, weight loss, boosted self-confidence and in my opinion, a better life.

If any of this resonates, welcome!

This beginner running plan will take you from ground zero, to running comfortably for 25-minutes straight.

We're not worried about how far or fast you run and neither should you be.

Today, you become a runner and in 12-weeks, a runner for life.

Tina Watson

When I came back to running again, I decided that I would try the Couch to 5k to get my fitness back....I didn't get on with that AT ALL, I found it really tough. I looked through the internet and came across None2Run and there was a PDF which I printed out and followed.

Mary Owens

As a person that is big on diversity, I love that the program is for everyone - whether you’re new to running or an experienced runner.

Caron Forman

I am so grateful for you, Mark, and this app and for the None to Run community for their constant encouragement. Although we all have never met and live in different parts of the world, everyone is so positive and inspiring.

Emily Shuman

Just do the run, make time to love yourself, and focus on how it makes you feel mentally rather than how things look on a scale.

Kat Andrew

In 2019 a friend invited me to participate in a 5k race. I immediately said sure.....then realized I don't run. Another friend, Stephanie, recommended N2R and the program. I started the 12-week plan and fell in love immediately.

Clara Baldwin

There will be some good, bad, and the ugly ones but never regret it! They all count, they all shape you as a runner.

Trine Larsen

In 10 months I have gone from running for 30 seconds to running for more than 50 minutes without stopping.

A Running App for Real People

In order to become a runner, you don't need much in order to become successful: a plan, an encouraging community and consistency. With N2R, you can have them all.

Works Around your Schedule

Time is hard to come by. Kids, work, and other commitments can get in the way. You need a plan that's easy to follow and can work around you, not the other way around.

Break down the lies you tell yourself

You look "weird" when you run. You’re “not” a runner. You’re too “slow” or too "Old." We're here to tell you right here, right now, that you’re wrong. You only *think* these things because it's new and you feel uncomfortable. That'll change with consistency and time. You are a runner!

Exercise Smarter, not harder

It may have been hard previously, but it doesn't have to be – now, you'll be given the tools and the knowledge to succeed. We’re doing things differently in order to see different results.

N2R Eases you in

Running when you aren't ready or without the proper training can hurt, leaving you with nagging injuries that never seem to clear up. We ease you in, giving you the strength and conditioning you need to make sure your running doesn't come with pain.
