Getting me back into running

Used this and the couch to 5k apps to start running many years ago. Took me three attempts to get through 5k but then I broke the barrier and it was so worth it. This app breaks it down so manageable. Have since run h several half marathons. Now getting back into running training for first 10K in 3 or 4 years since having second child. Excited to feel fitter and stronger again, and that little encouraging voice in your ear and gradual training you don’t have to think about is great!

Great

This starts you out at a doable pace and then moves you in doable increments, adjusting according to your ending questions. Excited for my race;)

Great app

This is a great app for training for a big run. The sister 5k app made it possible to keep going and I couldn’t help but continue on to the 10K. Next stop…half marathon!

Kenny

Exactly the tool I needed to run my first 10K on my 61st birthday!

Resetting itself

When running it kept resetting itself backwards meaning I ran a lot more than planned as I couldn't concentrate on fixing it whilst running
