Great app
Super easy to use & very straightforward!
Great free app. Easy to use
The app worked great. I had no issues.
Elegant and Simple
It just works. No subscriptions, and no ads. Gladly paid the one-time $3 for premium, but the app is absolutely useable without it. Very rarely am I so pleased with an app that I post an actual review, so I believe that says something!
The Only Free Couch to 5K App
We all need to appreciate Gary!! Every other couch to 5k app I tried was subscription based and didn’t let you go past a certain point without paying. This app is for the people and FREE! I paid the one time fee of $3.99 to support the developers. I think this is such an amazing app. Thanks Gary & team!

Excellent and free
This running app is all you need to learn how to run. I'd never been good at running, but now I can jog for 30 minutes straight and hopefully now will be a lifelong runner. Thank you so much, Gary! 🙏🏻
love!
this has been the easiest app to use and encourage myself to start running. between the helpful messages and ad free app. I’m having fun actually trying to increase my running stamina for a 5 k :)
Finally!
I was looking for an alternative to C25K that didn’t have a huge monthly fee. I came across Just Run on a Reddit forum and decided to give it a try. I love that it is free. Let’s start there. You can pay the $3.99 fee for the Premium content but definitely do not have to and still be able to effectively use the app. I gladly paid it to support the developer, not because it was necessary. Second bonus: NO DATA IS COLLECTED!!! This is next to impossible to find these days. Use: The walk/run program is identical to C25K. This was very streamlined. I could listen to Spotify without a problem during the whole thing. I just didn’t get mile updates from Apple Watch. I was able to see my progress on my Apple Watch without a problem. The only thing I didn’t like, and imho, this is an Apple Watch problem not an app problem, but the exercise you do using the app doesn’t sync to your Apple Watch activity. If you want it to track on your Apple Watch, you need to start a separate activity. Solid Gold five star app ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant coaching app
This app is great! Compared to some coaching apps, this is more on the basic side, but that’s a good thing. The app doesn’t shower you with too much overly complicated information. The training plan is spot on for people going from no running at all to running 40 mins straight! I’ve paid for the upgraded 10k version. If you are a running amateur, this is the app to use.

Awesome
So nice that Gary made this app for free so we can do the couch to 5k without having to pay for expensive subscriptions or getting inundated with ads like other apps! Simple and easy to use. The premium is definitely worth it, a one time fee for his hard work and you get the nice feature of Apple Watch integration.

Took me all the way to 5K
Thanks so much for the no frills, perfect app. wouldn’t have done it without this!
Not for people with POTS
This is just my experience. I have POTS I attempted week one day one, I pushed through. I didn’t think I was pushing myself too hard. It is now three days later and I just had to leave the emergency room. I’m fine, but I wish that there was an app for people who have an even lower baseline than this as my baseline is extremely low and I’m trying really hard to be healthy and fit again but ever since my diagnosis in 2023 it’s been really hard.

Just Run Is Great
This is the best app for anyone who wants to train or retrain for a 5K. I haven’t run/walk in 10 years but this app provides the appropriate training. I love it and highly recommend it!
Simple, Intuitive, and Beginner-Friendly
This app is simple and straight to the point, which is perfect for beginners who are prone to getting overwhelmed easily when there is too much information thrown at them or when they’re trying to figure out where to start (cough cough, me 😂).
I tried 2–3 other apps before finding this one, and they all felt too advanced with the amount of information they presented and the data they wanted to collect. Just Run is much more intuitive, making it easy to jump in and focus on running instead of learning how to use the app.

Great free plan
Very good
I was running 5ks like nothing after the nine weeks

The best C25K app hands down!
This app is incredibly simple and straightforward. It's easy to use, and provides very good visualizations of the daily workouts. The premium version is a one time purchase that lasts forever, and is 10 times cheaper than a yearly subscription of other apps. in other words, it is well worth it, and I was more than happy to leave a tip. Thanks a ton Gary!

Life Changing
I've not been able to successfully get into running without pain in my feet and knees before. I've been using this app for 6 weeks and I'm running further and feeling better than I thought possible, without any pain at all. I'm so happy! It's simple and easy to use and the support from Gary is fantastic. I love that it's a small independent app and you don't need to pay to use it, but you want to because it's so good! Thank you Gary 😊

Love this app!!
I love how simple it is. It is very effective and I loved it so much I payed for premium! 10/10 definitely recommend
Loving it!
This app got me back into running. Paid for premium and love having the circle tracker on my watch. I love how straightforward and simple the features are. Looking forward to doing the 10k training when I finish the 5k!
The Best
The GOAT of 0 to 5k.
No BS, just works as advertised.
