## Description

You don&#39;t need to be a runner to start. You need 8 weeks, 3 short runs a week, and a reason to come back on the days it rains.<br><br>Rise to 5K is a beginner run-walk program wrapped in one idea: every run you finish raises the sun a little further. Start in the dark. 24 runs later, it&#39;s morning, and you&#39;re running 5K.<br><br>THE PLAN CARRIES YOU<br>• 8 weeks, 3 runs a week, gently building from 1-minute jogs to a full 5K.<br>• The last run of the plan is a real 5K: it ends at 5 km, not on the clock.<br>• A voice tells you when to run and when to walk, over your music or podcast, with the screen off and the phone in your pocket.<br>• A voice tells you each kilometre&#39;s split as you pass it, if you want it.<br>• Leave the app mid-run and the timer floats over whatever you&#39;re watching.<br>• Life happens: miss a week and the plan bends softer, never harder. It suggests, you decide.<br><br>EVERY RUN EARNS A SUNRISE<br>• The sky on your home screen turns from night to dawn as runs are done. Your progress is the view.<br>• Sunrises mark the moments worth keeping: first run, first full week, halfway to dawn. Never a punishment, never a guilt trip.<br>• A quiet log remembers every run, including how it felt.<br><br>AFTER YOUR 5K, KEEP RISING<br>• Morning: 4 weeks to settle in. 3 runs a week, with a Long run that grows to 46 minutes.<br>• Noon: your 5K, quicker or easier. 6 weeks, with quick bursts in 1 run a week.<br>• Rise to 10K: built from your own runs, with a Long run that grows until it covers about 9 km.<br>• They open when you finish your 5K; Noon once your runs are long enough. Or just keep running.<br><br>DISTANCE, PACE AND ROUTE<br>• Live distance and pace under the clock, measured by your phone&#39;s GPS while you run.<br>• Finish and see where you went: your route drawn as a map, or as a constellation when you&#39;re offline.<br>• Share a run as a night-sky card with your route written in stars.<br>• Save your runs to Apple Health or Health Connect, if you choose.<br>• It all stays on your phone. Routes are never uploaded, and deleting a run deletes its route. Don&#39;t want it? One switch turns tracking off, on the screen before every run.<br><br>RUN YOUR WAY<br>• No plan today? An open run lets you conduct it: warm up, run, walk, whenever you say. The ladder draws itself as you go.<br><br>SIMPLE ON PURPOSE<br>• No account, no sign-up. Open the app and start.<br>• Your runs live on your phone; back them up to a file whenever you like, restore them anywhere.<br><br>The couch has had you long enough. The sun&#39;s coming up.
