What's New in Norwegian Singles

1.7.0

June 19, 2026

Version 1.7.0 adds weather-adjusted paces and a lot of correctness fixes around pace updates, intervals.icu sync, ongoing plans, and plan editing. New: - Planned quality workouts can now adjust for heat and humidity. The app checks local weather near the planned run time and slows quality-workout targets when the combined heat and dew point load is high. - Automatic weather mode checks quality days in the near forecast window. Manual mode waits until you tap Check Conditions from the workout preview. - Easy runs get a note instead of changed paces. Race days are left alone. - Adapted workouts show both original and adjusted paces, can be restored with Keep Original Paces, and sync adjusted targets to Apple Watch scheduled workouts and intervals.icu. Pace and plan updates: - Saving a new VDOT from the calculator can now update current and upcoming plan weeks, then re-sync intervals.icu. - Profile easy-pace edits and race-pace overrides now reach existing plan weeks instead of only changing the profile. - Re-test now has one Update All Paces flow for saved workouts, plan weeks, and intervals.icu. - Weekly plans now get pace refreshes too. - New ongoing-plan weeks now use your current paces, not last week's stored pace snapshot. - Re-test can refresh existing ongoing-plan weeks while keeping completed weeks and day edits. intervals.icu fixes: - intervals.icu threshold pace now uses actual threshold pace instead of a rep target. - Threshold pace now better matches the official VDOT calculator for slower runners. - The app no longer changes your intervals.icu threshold silently. It only updates when you tap the explicit update button. - Editing any planned week now syncs to intervals.icu. - Plan sync updates each day's workout in place, which should reduce duplicate intervals.icu workouts. - Ongoing completed-week sync now targets the selected week instead of bleeding into the current week. Plan cleanup: - Day labels update immediately after drag-and-drop reorder. - The plan list no longer jumps to the top after reordering. - Plan edits clear stale workout fields more reliably. - Build Your Week long-run steppers now move in the expected direction. - Quality ratio guidance now adapts to the number of quality sessions. Workout fixes: - Marathon Pace workouts now default to a 3:00 jog recovery. - Marathon Pace from workout preview now builds the book-backed 3 x 17:00 workout with 3:00 jog recoveries. - Quality Long Run no longer fills a selected rest day when it moves a quality session into the long run. - Quick Create workouts can now be saved intentionally as either a default update or a new Library workout. - Quick Create and Library saves now preserve edited rest, warmup, cooldown, and time-based workout settings. - Use in Plan opens the assigned custom workout more reliably. Matching, widget, and sync fixes: - Cross-provider duplicate runs from Strava and intervals.icu are collapsed more reliably. - Incoming duplicate activities are suppressed before they become unmatched-run banners. - Race-plan past-week matches are preserved better during sync. - Race-plan sync reaches back two weeks. - Existing matched runs are preserved after temporary Strava or intervals.icu errors. - The home-screen widget refreshes more reliably and should not stay stuck on yesterday's workout. - Apple Watch scheduled workouts refresh when VDOT changes. - Daily training notifications use the actual alarm date.

I’ve fallen and I can’t get up

Fallen in love with this app. It’s taught me a lot about running. And a little about love.

Great App!

So helpful and easy to use!

Perfect to plan your NSM plan

I love the ability to sync to intervals and from there to Garmin so I can start my NSM workouts straight from my watch.
