A Couch to 5K solution for Meego (N9)?

Hey maemo.org community. I am looking into buying yet another N9 for myself this time, but before I want to do I want to assure that there is a Couch 2 5k solution for Meego.

I've been searching the ovi (now nokia store) for a C2k app and there doesn't seem to be anyone for MeeGo.

Does anyone know if there is an alternative Running app for Meego that supports running/walking intervals? (ex. Run 5 minutes, then walk 3 minutes, then run etc.)

Re: A Couch to 5K solution for Meego (N9)?

I did not realise such a mundane thing could be monetised. You don't need an app bro, you just have to want it.

1. 2 minute warmup (milling around, stretchy stuff etc).

2. One of the below:
Beginner mode:

8 reps of:
10 seconds MAXIMUM ****ING EFFORT RUNNING LIKE THERE IS 1000 HUNGRY BEARS CHASING YOU TO DEATH OMG.
20 seconds of slow jog (DO NOT STOP).

Normal mode:

8 reps of:
15 seconds MAXIMUM ****ING EFFORT RUNNING LIKE THERE IS 1000 HUNGRY BEARS CHASING YOU TO DEATH OMG.
15 seconds of slow jog (DO NOT STOP).

Hard mode:

8 reps of:
20 seconds MAXIMUM ****ING EFFORT RUNNING LIKE THERE IS 1000 HUNGRY BEARS CHASING YOU TO DEATH OMG.
10 seconds of slow jog (DO NOT STOP).

GOD MODE:

8 reps of:
25 seconds MAXIMUM ****ING EFFORT RUNNING LIKE THERE IS 1000 HUNGRY BEARS CHASING YOU TO DEATH OMG.
5 seconds of slow jog (DO NOT STOP).

Do one of the above 8 times (totaling 4 minutes)

3. 2 minute cool-down (milling around, stretchy stuff, walk home).

This will take you around 10 minutes tops (your shower afterwards will take longer. If you do not feel like you want to vomit afterwards you did not run hard enough. Only do this 3 times per week (spread out) and very little else will be required.

WARNING!

The above will have a serious effect on your fitness level and mental well being, approach with caution.

Bump...

Can anyone try this app for me on their N9:

And be so kindly to tell me if it supports intervals with a jingle at each interval change? :p

Please!
