## What is RunFast Training?

RunFast builds you a real training plan. Periodised, individualised, and shaped around the days you can actually run. Then keeps you honest about following it.

No account. No ads. No tracking. Everything stays on your iPhone.

BUILT FOR YOUR GOAL
Pick a race — 5K, 10K, half or full marathon — with a date and an optional target time. Or simply choose to get fitter, or to hold the fitness you have. Tell RunFast which days you can train, how much you're running now, and how fit you are (from a recent race time, or a self-rated level), and it generates a full week-by-week plan in seconds.

PACES THAT FIT YOU
Every session comes with its own target pace range, derived from your current fitness using Jack Daniels' VDOT model: Easy, Marathon, Threshold, Interval and Repetition zones. No more guessing whether "tempo" means 4:40 or 5:20 for you.

A PLAN, NOT A TO-DO LIST
• Base → Build → Peak → Taper, progressing into race week
• Around 6–10% weekly volume growth, capped for your level and your goal
• A deload week every fourth week, with volume cut by about a quarter
• Roughly 80% easy running, with 0–2 quality sessions a week depending on phase
• One long run per week, capped so it never swallows your training
• Sessions placed only on days you said you're free — and the long run prefers a weekend

ONE TAP FROM APPLE HEALTH
Already ran today's session? RunFast finds the matching run in Apple Health and offers to complete it for you, with distance, time, pace, heart rate and calories filled in. You can also pick from your recent runs, or log a session by hand with distance, time, perceived effort and how it felt.

STAY ACCOUNTABLE
A streak, weekly adherence, a race countdown, planned-versus-completed volume for every week, and your completion rate by training phase. Plus one optional daily reminder, at a time you choose.

WHEN LIFE GETS IN THE WAY
Ill, injured, travelling, or simply out of road? Tell RunFast you can't train and say roughly how long — today, a few days, the rest of the week, or open-ended. Those days stop counting against your adherence, your streak pauses instead of resetting, and the daily reminder goes quiet until you're back. A bounded break picks up on its own, so there is nothing to remember and nothing to make up.

YOURS TO KEEP
Export any plan as a file to back it up or pass it on, and import plans the same way. Your training is not locked inside someone else's service.

GOOD TO KNOW
• RunFast plans and logs your training — it does not record runs with GPS. Use your watch or favourite tracking app for that, then complete the session straight from Apple Health.
• Kilometres or miles. RunFast follows your iPhone's region, and you can switch at any time in Profile — your plan updates instantly, no rebuilding.
• Apple Health access is optional. The app works fully without it, only ever reads, and never writes anything back to Health.
• Requires iOS 17 or later. iPhone only.

RunFast is a training planner, not a substitute for professional coaching or medical advice. Talk to a doctor before starting a new training programme.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-09-28

HELP IMPROVE RUNFAST, IF YOU WANT TO

RunFast can now share anonymous usage data: which screens you open, what you tap, and error codes when something breaks. It is off unless you turn it on, and your name, health data, paces and notes are never sent. Change your mind any time in Profile.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-12

WHEN YOU CAN'T TRAIN, SAY SO
Ill, injured, travelling, or simply out of road? Tell RunFast you can't train and say roughly how long — today, a few days, the rest of the week, or open-ended. Those days stop counting against your adherence, your streak pauses instead of resetting, and the daily reminder goes quiet until you're back. A bounded break picks up on its own, so there is nothing to remember and nothing to make up.

MOVE A WEEK'S SESSIONS BETWEEN DAYS
Tuesday's run doesn't fit this week? Move it to Wednesday and take Tuesday off instead. You can rearrange the current week or any week ahead of it, and choose whether it applies just this once or to every week after it. The training itself is untouched — same sessions, same weekly volume, same long run. Only the day each one falls on changes.

NOW IN GERMAN AND SPANISH
The whole app follows your iPhone's language.

A CALMER LOOK
The app used to reach for a different colour on every screen. Now there is one accent colour throughout, with a single ordered scale for anything that has a natural order — pace zones, effort, training phase — so a colour on screen actually tells you something.

ALSO IN THIS RELEASE
• The daily reminder stays quiet on rest days
• The "This week" card on Home opens that week in your plan
• No more blank screen for a moment when the app starts up
