  • Excellent!

    Love this app. Very motivating. Ready to do the 10K version now. I did have to repeat a couple of weeks when it ramped up kind of quickly, but it was no big deal.
  • Perfect

    Does everything it needs to, and nothing it doesn’t. All for free! It’s so good I wanted to buy it, especially for the low, lifetime price. Thanks for making this app, I can’t wait until I can run a full 5k.
  • Great app for free (but definitely buy it!)

    I’ve tried a bunch of running apps and they all have crazy ads always popping up for subscriptions you have to pay per week/month for. This is a great app if you are new to running or just getting back into it and don’t really want someone yelling at you the entire time “good job! Keep going! You’re doing great!”…. It has just simple “start running” “start walking” “you’re halfway” “start cool down”. Very easy to use and I love the simplicity of it.
  • Best app

    I used a different app for 5K training a few different times over the years. I started the program over again only to find out there was now a payment required on a subscription model. I am glad I found this app to continue my training. I didn’t even mind paying the optional premium upgrade for a $2.99 flat fee as I felt that was a fair and reasonable price. I am happy to support developers who should be compensated for their work, but I didn’t like the “gotcha” tactic used on the other app. I highly recommend this one if you’re looking for a great app for your running training!
  • Simple & free!

    Love this app, got me off the couch and finished a 5k / am now trying to run a 10k now! I’ve been meaning to get in shape for years and years but this app was the final push. Bought premium just to support the developer. Thanks so much!
  • Simplicity works!

    This is a straightforward app. It has a good progression for brand new runners to build stamina to run a 5k. I love that the free version is all that is needed, so in appreciation of that, I purchased the app to support the developer.
  • Fantastic and No Subscription

    Does exactly what I need, and doesn’t charge a subscription. Need more apps like this one. Paid for the upgrade just to support the dev.
  • Great app

    The app is great - does exactly what I need it to do and is not overly complicated. The voices add on are great. Thank you for this easy way to increase my running minutes and train for 5k
  • Came here from C25K

    I came here after finding out C25K started charging a subscription. I am getting back into running again and the app used to be free. This app is simple, to the point, and a great running companion. Because it’s completely free it’s better than C25K. I went ahead and bought the premium to support the developer. Offering extra features that are not necessary but cool to have or a fun upgrade is the way to go. This model makes people want to support an app that they love when they can. This is the same type of model for my favorite phone game Shop Titians uses. I don’t have to spend money and can play the entire game and not loose out at all. I pay for the subscription and an occasional mega pack because I love the game and find value in it. However, sometimes I have to cancel the subscription, but that does not affect gameplay at all. There are also no ads. The game advertises its own products like this app does. I can see this app growing a large and loving health oriented community as long as it sticks to a model something like this. I love what the the developer is doing here! I will be recommending this app!
  • Simple, straight forward, ad-free app that doesn’t spy on you

    Love this app so far. It does exactly what it needs to and nothing it doesn’t.

    I like that the app doesn’t require making an account to use it and doesn’t collect any data about you, anonymous or otherwise.
