## What is ExcuseRun?

Can't run for one minute straight? That's the starting line.

ExcuseRun is a beginner run coach that walks you from your first minute to a
20-minute run. And when you're done, it turns the distance into a card.

■ It talks you through the run
· "Run one minute." "Walk two minutes, catch your breath."
· A heads-up 30 seconds before each interval ends
· It ducks your music instead of stopping it
· Keeps going with the screen off

■ Standing still doesn't count against you
· Stop at a light and the timer stops with you
· Start moving and it picks right back up
· Paused time comes out of your total

■ The plan follows you
· One question sets your level. No test run
· Start by Walking / 20 to 30 / Holding 40 / Picking Up Speed
· Not your day? Skip the interval
· Skip a few and the plan quietly steps back a week
· If your goal is far off, it shows you the steps instead of saying no

■ A card for every run
· The same 5km is Cheonggyecheon today, blossom road tomorrow
· 40 cards across Neighborhood, Seoul, Space, and Food
· It reads as a joke, not a flex, so you can actually post it

■ You can see the change
· How your longest unbroken run grew, minute by minute
· Replay any past run interval by interval — where you paused, what you skipped
· A streak calendar for the days you moved

■ Light on purpose
· No account. Everything stays on your phone
· Location is only used to measure distance and never leaves the device
· Deny location and the interval guidance still works
· No watch needed. Log treadmill, walking, running or stairs by hand

For everyone who tried to start running three times already.
