Leave a Review RunBetter App
Helped me get ready for NYC Marathon
I don't have many opportunities to run outside, let alone run the actual NYC Marathon course to prepare for race day. The RunBetter App can be used on ANY treadmill and you can run any of the courses they have from all over the world. It's very simplistic, yet effective. You choose what course you want to run, then the app tells you when to adjust the incline on your treadmill based on where you are in the course virtually. I felt so much better prepared for the hills of the NYC course after using this app.Show lessKatie Shmidt

Couldn't have trained for Boston without this app. Was shocked to find it even existed, but I'm so happy it did. Such a smart idea! Will definitely use it again for other races on the app.Melba1223

Thank you for the compliments, Melba! We are thrilled to hear that you are loving the app.Great for treadmill users
My town where i run is pretty flat so it was challenging for me to properly prepare for the hilly Wine Country Half Marathon. Luckily i found this app and could run the course from the treadmill at my gym. Convenient and inexpensive.ploppypodolak
Great for those who travel to a race
I’m running the New York City Marathon in the fall. I wanted a way to train the course before race day, but I'm not able to get to NYC before then. I was amazed when a friend told me about this app. Now I can train the NYC course on my treadmill. It has been extremely helpful for this runner. I will definitely use it for other races I run in the future- they have so many on the app!Show lessBenjamin Pumphrey

SO happy to hear that you are enjoying the RunBetter App, Benjamin. Good luck with your training for NYC!Update: Great support!
I want to update my last review. The RunBetter team was super quick to respond and fix a bug that kept me from using some courses. Very responsive and it got fixed quickly. The app is so helpful for someone like me that can only drive to a hilly area on weekends and makes preparing for hilly races much easier. I love that you can run the full course or a specific section. Happy running!Show lessKat_BlueMoon

Kat, we are so happy for your updated review. We strive to be responsive to any issues that come up for our users. Glad to hear you're enjoying the RunBetter App!Great App for indoor Training
I started using this app when I was training for a race and the temps started to drop. The Run Better App had the course of my race on their platform, and I was able to set my treadmill up to the course. This app helped me get a PR on my race and I think it’s because I was able to virtually train on the course. I definitely recommend for any runner looking for an extra push.Show lessjkur0810

That's so great to hear! Thanks for your kind words about the RunBetter App! Happy Running!Run with a purpose!
Until using RunBetter, I never wanted to use the incline on treadmills at the gym. After using the app to train for the New York City Marathon I can't imagine running at a 0 degree incline again. I also didn't realize how many sneaky little hills there were on the route and using the app I was able to prepare accordingly! One other great benefit is it shows (albeit small) the actual incline, so when it's showing to set your incline to 0, the actual incline might be -1. This is nice if you are lucky enough to own or find a treadmill at the gym that has this feature.
I do wish it showed the incline profile along with the elevation profile but overall a great app!Show lessJeanette_K

I downloaded this app to help me train for Big Sur (BSIM) and I loved everything about it. It was easy to navigate and it helped when I needed to train indoors. I was also able to use it for CIM. Love that it has multiple courses to choose from!5bojorquez
