Great planning with flexibility

I did my first marathon last year along with another 21 races through the year. I was able to finish my marathon without injury and finish well. I plan to keep using the app for my future training, excellent for no guessing game, it is personalized to my individual effort.

RunDot is amazing!

This program has greatly improved my running without injuries! It is easy to use and quick to see results, trust the process and reap the rewards! Have fun running with RunDot!

Best training app and best community

Last September, I walked into a place here in Austin and—boom!—there was the legend himself, Meb Keflezighi. I couldn’t miss the chance to say hi to one of my heroes. We chatted, and when I shared my running woes, he asked, “Have you heard of Run Dot? Why not give it a shot?”

So I did. The next day, I signed up for a trial. A few days later, I was in—and I’ve been running with Run Dot ever since.

With Run Dot, I finally got a training plan tailored for me—a 51-year-old guy with diabetes. It adapted to how I was feeling right now, not some generic runner profile. And wow, things started clicking.

Heart rate-based runs? Total game changer. I’m now running faster and longer with way less effort. And the cherry on top? The Run Dot community. These folks are pure gold—welcoming, supportive, full of tips, and they make you feel like you’ve found your tribe.

So here’s the punchline: one year after joining Run Dot, I finally broke my 7-year PR and ran my first sub-2-hour half marathon.

Finally PR’d thanks to this app

I was stuck in a training rut; trying various written/fixed plans for several training rounds and I still couldn’t break my PR I had set several years ago. I saw an ad on social media for this app and decided to give it a try. Instantly I knew this was something different: setting up the baseline stats and completing my first couple of runs informed me quickly of where I was at and where I could end up if I stuck with the plan. I’m happy to say I’ve been using this app for the last year and a half and I’ve only gotten faster and stronger as a runner. Please give it a try if you feel like you’ve hit a wall in improving your goals!

My new favorite running tool!

Started with RunDot about 2 years ago. While it took a bit to get used to, the combination of the community and their dedicated customer service RunDot made my training SO MUCH easier. My workouts are set for the week and the unicorn rewards are an extra! Love being an ambassador for year 2!

Couch to 5k

I hadn’t ran in years. Downloaded the app and was completing a 5k within weeks! I’ve never been in better shape!

App is good however

I like the app and I see the potential however with my iPhone 15 pro running the latest iOS I am having some UI bugs of buttons overlapping and it could overall use some cleaning up. Love the app and I will continue using it, hopefully the small menu bugs and lag is fixed!

User Interface is Terrible

I love the concept of the app, but the user interface is so horrible it makes me not want to even try it…please, please hire a UX designer.

Navigating the app is clunky and glitchy, some buttons take you to the online platform or to a screen with totally different navigation options as what you had before.

There also doesn’t seem to be a way to adjust workout duration preferences (so mine are all starting out way too long) or day of week preferences other than long days, so mine are all just clustered together at the beginning of weeks unless I manually spread them out.

Developers — please give this app some UX attention, it’s a shame to hinder such a cool concept.

Great Tool for Training

I have been using this app for about a year and a half. The workouts have prepared me well for races, and the race prediction is accurate!

Accountability and Progress

Overall a great app. Last year it started pairing with my Apple Watch which makes all the difference! I don’t like having to use two different apps (RunDot and Dot Connect), and both can be a bit glitchy at times. But overall, this program has helped me keep up with my running and provides enough variety in the workouts to keep me from getting bored.

Love RunDot!

I have been using this app for about two years. I have increased mileage without injury, lowered my 5k and 10k time and love the coaching and the app! It’s like a little buddy on your wrist!

RunDot works for me

I have been an age group runner for several years. Unfortunately, I developed POTS and have suffered high heart rate issues. Soon after starting RunDot, my heart rate started to lower, even with my pace increasing. I also don’t feel so beat up with the marathon training.

Best Running App!!! Hands Down.

Started with Rundot this past summer in preparation for a fall marathon. I feel stronger and am injury-free. The data analytics that goes into formulating my training plan is cutting edge. This app takes the stress and worry out of putting together a run training plan.

Great Training App

If not for the RunDot app, I would have never trained for or run a marathon. RunDot’s training programs are much less stressful on the body while still being extremely productive and successful. I ran a Boston Marathon qualifying time in my first marathon.

Great Resource!

I have been using RunDot since February 2024. I started using a free trial and was so pleased with the approach and the individualized workouts and data that I continued with a paid subscription. I know more about my running and much more about how to improve. Cannot say too many good things about my experience with RunDot!

My new running go to!

It took a little getting used to but with great customer support I was able to get the hang of things. The race predictor for my first half marathon was only 60 seconds off. Love not having to worry about a training plan and the low heart rate runs were a game changer. Love RunDot.

Great

Great program and great results!!

RunDot Works!!

I have been using RunDot for about a year and half, and highly recomend it! I am a much stronger and more confident runner after trainig with RunDot. I recently ran the MDI Marathon with one of my sons and his finace, and I had no trouble running at their speed. I felt very prepared and well trained thanks to RunDot. Follow this program and you will be happy with the results! Happy Running with RunDot!

Excellent App

I have been using RunDot in the last year and it has transformed my running literally. I race a lot - I’m running the 50 states half marathon challenge and this has been the best preparation that has kept me injury free. Despite the high frequency of my races, I really enjoy training - the 80% easy zone two runs is exactly what I needed. Additionally, I can see the improvements in my performance. Highly highly recommend.
