Awfully inconsistent
This has to be one of the worst running apps I’ve ever used.
The imbedded mathematics in this thing just don’t make sense.
First: it’s just bad at simple math. Like, it’ll tell me I have 29k left to run but I have 1 14k run left on my weekly schedule.
Second: Everytime I open the app to look at my next run, it’s changed. I JUST opened it to see I was running 17.7k today and then when I went to look again, moments later, it now said I was supposed to run 12.3k.
Third: the pace calculator doesn’t work more than once at a time. If you check for a marathon pace and then try to go for another race distance, it won’t work. You have to close the app entirely.
I’m so happy I only paid for one month (which btw It kept telling me I hadn’t paid but it dinged me anyway so if I wouldn’t have known to just close the app and start again it would have charged me twice) because I will not be continuing with this.
Awful.

Seriously buggy
Set up process crashed or looped me around like 4 times and required to close and reopen the app. Also seems super basic compared to stuff like Runalyze which is infinitely cheaper with tons more info. I can’t recommend but if it works for you I don’t judge.
Amazing platform and support
I’ve tried every app from Runna to VDot to manual programming. I have a crazy work schedule and kids and often find it time to do prescribed runs on a schedule. Kaizen is the most adaptive training app I’ve ever seen. Not only does it adapt to what you do, it easily adapts to your life.
When I had a question, Kaizen support reached back and answered my questions immediately.
10/10 app. Highly recommended for anyone who cares about running.

Great app
I like how this app leaves me to train the way I want, but still gives good predictions that adjust directly with my recent training volume and intensity. Switched from Runna and am very happy with it.
Love Kaizen
Kaizen is the only app that’s kept me structured, motivated, and actually improving.

awesome, glad to hear it's working for you!
