Step back from the 10K app
This apps end goal is to get you to run 4/walk 1 on repeat for 6 miles... then magically, you’re supposed to be able to run/walk 13.1 miles 2 days later. If you’ve gone to the end of the 10K app (running 6+ miles no walking) you’re probably currently able to run 4/walk 1 for the duration of a half marathon. If you are downloading this app to progress from there, don’t waste your money.

Great beginner app
I used this app to train for the Disney 1/2 Marathon weekend. It was my first 1/2 and without it I probably wouldn’t have finished. It helped me pace myself and I really enjoyed the run. I would definitely recommend it.
Okay ... ish.
The app does exactly what it says and has been a huge help but always loses connection so my progress gets lost.
No end of times I’ve got to the ‘begin cooldown’ and feel like I’ve been going forever and look at the app and it’s closed 😡 not good after a one hour run and then to lose all progress especially for a paid app!

Minor additions
Wonderful app. The only additions I’d like to see are a GPS map of the course you ran after you finish and louder alarms in comparison to the music that is playing or maybe a longer pause in the music during the transition periods.
Works great
The only thing this app doesn’t provide is your minute/mile pace, which I would like to track to mark my improvement. All you get is your distance and calories burned and I’d prefer more detailed data about my run. The audio cues work well and the app is easy to use.
Not a fan of the update
Worked great before, but now it paused itself at least three times in (what should have been) a 43 minute run. And yes, the screen was locked.
If this can be fixed, I’d be a happy customer again. If not, I’ll have to use another app.

Good but glitchy
I love this app in theory but as I’ve gotten farther into it (around week 7 I think) it’s started glitching on time. I’ll look at the time then do a cycle or two and look at the time and it will be the same or it will say workout completed but when I open the app time is still left. I’ve updated and don’t want to lose my progress. I’ve also found the distance isn’t very accurate but I just run map my run in the background and it isn’t an issue. Overall I would recommend it for at least getting into it!

Ex-Athlete Getting back in-shape
This app is fantastic. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for to get back in good shape after my athletic career. This program eases you back into working out regularly at a safe pace.
Old white woman starts running after 30 years
Used the c25k app and running for the first time in 30 years. Highly recommended.
Great for those trying to get back in the game
So I am 24 years old and have had two knee surgeries and for the last 5 years I have made every excuse to not have to try and get back to my previously athletic self. I have struggled mostly because of self esteem and every workout was difficult because it was mainly speed oriented and distanced. Needless to say the day after a workout I would be unable to walk. The nice thing about this workout is it is challenging but realistic and not painful to do. Granted I’m sore the next day but I can walk. I actually look forward to working out. I will post again when I have completed the entire training because I am registered for the Disney Princess Half Marathon in February so I am hoping to finish in a reasonable amount of time and I’m using this app as my training plan. I highly recommend it.
