My Go-To Running Trainer

I have used this app for years and am really pleased with its features. I love the satisfaction of seeing the dots on the calendar that are recorded with each workout. My only complaint is that the chimes for each interval do not play if the app is not open.

Tracking

My app doesn’t tell me how fast I’m going or distance

Good and not so good

I love how they track everything, but I don’t like how I can’t share it to my social media platforms😕
