I saw a few when I searched app store, which one do you recommend?

Get out and run. Start at 5-10 minutes, and increase 10% each week. Every 4th week is a recovery week, so reduce by 20%, then resume.

I do run, trying to help out someone that does not.

The one that is literally called “Couch to 5K” is what I used.

I am currently doing this one. Been a few years since I've run, so I decided to start over. If you are active, this is a good one, but you could find other plans that are 8-12 weeks long.

C25K is the one you want.

Just downloaded this. My problem is not endurance, but my left hip flexor gets super tight after about 5 minutes of continuous running. Hopefully this app will keep me disciplined to run/walk until my hip gets stronger/ loosens up.

Thanks for the rec. I do HIIT/gym in the morning but then sit at a desk for most of the day. I suspect over the years I have not done enough stretching for my hips and sitting has shortened my flexors. A year or so ago I wanted to get back in to running. I went way too hard my first run back and I guess strained my hip flexor. Has been tight ever since. I'll try the yoga along with slowly adding time to my runs.

I’m currently on the 5k to Couch program

C25k is a great app. I was a fat frick who couldn’t run for 90 seconds when I started 4-5 years ago and now I regularly run 8-10 miles for long runs on the weekend and have completed multiple HMs
