Such a great training app

Love the simple commentary and the clear plan.

Great app

Downloaded this years ago and I come back to it every time I fall out of shape. Easy to follow and good motivation.

Great!

I love the timer however my runs are not syncing and I am unable to connect to my watch

Greatest training plan

I started with the 5K trainer and have worked my way up to the 13.1. Ran my first half this past December and did it in 2:13. I recommend this for anyone wanting to get started

Good motivation

Sometimes you need a little motivation and this app does that. Alerts to workout. Pep while working out. And you can take pics when you finish. At the end you have a large collection to show you the hard work you’ve accomplished.

Why is this a subscription?

I remember paying for the running app library a few years ago. I could probably restore my purchase and get some lesser version of the paid subscription mess they’re pushing now, but I don’t want to support an app that refuses to let its backers own the software they think they’re paying for. The inability to permanently disable the flock of obnoxious tracking requests every time I start a workout is pushing me out of using this company’s apps entirely. I never thought Nike would have a better running app than Zen. I’m sad the company went this way.

I have purchased this app, now have to subscribe

This app used to be a purchase, not subscription. I already paid for the app and should not have to pay a subscription fee just because i have not used it in a long time.

Great app

Love how easy and smooth is the training for my half marathon race and also the mix music albums

I love it

Honestly, I am a newer runner. I have done 5ks, a 10K, and now my first half. The app works, gives you a plan, it is very reinforcing in its set up, and honestly gets you to your goal. Give it a try!

Works if you work

I definitely recommend doing the 5k and 10K apps first. But as long as you do it to the best of your ability this will work.

My favorite running app.

I started with the Zen Labs C25K (which I’ve done for 10+ years every racing season) then decided to give this one a try. I love that I can play music on any app in the background and it talks over it to tell me when to start/stop running/walking. I love the warm up and cool down. I also love that it automatically links with my Apple Watch and Apple Fitness without me having to do anything.

Best app

I started with the 5k and have been working my way up. It breaks it down in a way that makes the distances feel obtainable! A great app!

RIP off

I bought and paid for a full product a few years ago and “due to the current climate” they have changed to a subscription, this means the full product I bought is no longer valid. I have the 10K, 13.1 & 26.2 app and the 10K is the only app that works and hasn’t moved to subscription. I won’t hold my breath on how long I’ll still have access to that one.

Easy to use

I love that this app makes it easy to achieve my goal. I hit start and follow instructions. I’ve used the c25k app and liked it just as much.

Half marathon jeffing

So glad I downloaded this app 👍

Didn’t realise jeffing would make my pace better that all out and it has helped manage my breathing 😮‍💨

Roll on my London park half marathon in October 🙃

Great workout

Appreciated the prompts and tracking

Best trainer

Love this, have worked up from c25k, great app

Love it!

Love this app. I’m in my late fifties, so no spring chicken. And as a beginner runner, it’s been a huge help in giving me structure and motivation in my training. It has made what at one time seemed overwhelming - running a half marathon - into a manageable and doable challenge. Def recommended.

Great partner!

This app makes a great run partner as I have restarted my own running journey after a few years of being out of it!
