## What is Runner 1?

Know what to run before you head out.

Runner 1 reviews up to 28 days of training alongside today’s conditions—including weather and time of day—to build a clear workout and a split-by-split pace plan.

Start today’s strategy run with Runner 1 Plus and Apple Watch to get live AI voice coaching based on your pace, heart rate, cadence, and current segment target. When the run is over, your results help shape what comes next.

Your runs shouldn’t just fill a log. Put them to work on the next one.

• A daily workout based on recent training and today’s conditions
• Segment-by-segment targets for pace, heart rate, and cadence
• Live AI voice coaching with Apple Watch
• AI insights for recent training and individual runs

Workouts recorded in other apps can appear in Runner 1 when they are saved to Apple Health and you grant HealthKit read access. Available analysis depends on the data each app writes to Apple Health.

Runner 1 Plus is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription. Trial eligibility and pricing are shown on the App Store purchase screen. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.

Runner 1 is not a medical device and does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment.
