I rarely (truly) write reviews. But I will for this app. I was using C25k but quickly got tired of the ‘bells and whistles’ I didn’t need or want. Just Run is perfect. I just hit ‘start’ and the app lets me know when to walk/ run. I can just focus on running and listen to my music or podcast. No ads or multiple ‘upgrade to premium’ interruptions haven’t run for years, but I look forward to running now. Thanks for keeping it simple, effective accesible and free!
I have been wanting to run, but every time I try I end up giving up because it’s too difficult. I was referred to the couch to 5k app, but after finding that one costs to use, I saw this one recommended as a great replacement. It’s wonderful so far, and free! It really teaches you how to build up tolerance and gives advice on the pace you should be maintaining to make it not difficult, I have even started getting my fiancé who is not a runner to use it and he agrees that this has so far been the best running motivator for him:)
I haven't actually used the app yet, but after looking through it to get familiar with it, I love it already. It is simple and well thought out. I love the bar at the bottom of each day shows what you can expect for that days run. I haven't run in years, so I wanted something like this to help me get back into it. I love that it can be used for free, and with no ads. I also think it's awesome that users have the option to test features before they are potentially added permanently. After reviewing, I purchased the premium option, without hesitation, just to support the developer (I know 2.99 isn't much, but sometimes I'm still not willing to pay it haha). I appreciate him for making such a user friendly app supporting the continuation of this app is the least I can do. 10/10 would recommend.
I tried a few C25K apps and couldn’t find one I actually enjoyed. Plus most of them required subscriptions or large upfront payments that I didn’t feel like making. This app is very simple and it doesn’t have some of the bells and whistles that the other apps have but it’s free and does exactly what I need it to do. I’m on week 6 and haven’t experience any issues. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend this App for anyone looking to get into running or to get back into it, which is true in my stead. I came here from C25k to avoid the subscription. Once here I made a donation and I will probably make a second donation once I complete the training. I am at week 5 and finding this very doable. I am a woman over 60 years and want to keep my health. Please download and use this App and donate to its production so that it will continue to be here for others like us.
I started out running using a different app, but they charged an expensive subscription. I was so happy when I found this app and it offered the same program for free! It pushes you just the right amount! Whenever I tried running before I always felt so lost, so this app has been amazing! So great for people just starting to run. I also love that you can switch to 10k after the 5k!
I too came here from C25K to avoid the subscription. I think this app is awesome! You get everything the other app does in terms of help on improving running. After getting out of the military I stopped cardio and this has brought me back to enjoy running. It also starts off very easy so anyone can do it. The best feature is the “half way turn around” indicator. It helps me turn around and make it back to the start right on time.
I was going to start the C25K program and was bummed to see that there was an expensive monthly subscription charge now. So glad to find this app!! I’ve never been a runner in my life, but signed up for a 12k in April and this app has been such an incredible motivator! I just finished week 9 last week (the last week of 2023) and can’t wait to start the 5k to 10k plan!
I literally never wrote reviews but I just love this app so much. I came here after originally finishing Couch to 5K in the summer of 2020 when I first got into running. Since then I’ve been on and off, and after a major surgery I look a long hiatus from working out altogether. When I went to redownload the C25K app I was upset that they had now started to charge for the exact same, once-free app. After a quick Reddit search I learned about Just Run, and now am on Week 3 of running. The app is so simple but so we’ll designed and I love the personal touches of encouragement! You can really tell that the creator of this app really cared about what went into it, and I have since paid the one-time $3.99 for premium just because I want to support the creator and really appreciate the effort that went into the app. I’m loving restarting my running journey so far and this app makes it so easy to lace up my shoes and go for a run!
Since c25k app is not free anymore, I went to Reddit to find feedback about other free apps and people were raving about this one. I can only agree! Developer did a great job, app is super easy to use, completely free and I’m using it to train for a 10K run. I also love that I have the option to put volume of this app on mute while listening to my own music. Keep up the good work!
