Great tool

Very helpful for setting paces in training. Of course it requires you have a few good data points (race times) as a starting point.

Whats the difference between this one

Hi
Want to ask should this app to be paired with the vo2 app? I don’t get it, what’s the difference between the 2? Don’t tell me I’ll have to purchase both??

Hi Abby, You might be thinking of the V.O2 training app as that is separate. You don't need to pay for this app to perform calculations. Feel free to send us a message at info@vdoto2.com and we can explain in more detail.

What happened?!

App was apparently just updated and now won’t open.

We updated the app some time ago and are unaware of any issues with opening it up. Can you send us a message to info@vdoto2.com so we can help you further?

It may not be perfect, and in some ways dependent on the training you do. But it does give some important clues on training and ability. It is an excellent tool, even though at times imperfect in its results.

Used to be great

This app used to be my go-to for running based calculations. But the most recent update (Aug 2020) limits you to 3 calculations per day unless you upgrade to the not-so-cheap premium version.
Sorry, but there are other free apps out there to do simple arithmetic. Deleted.

Johnny, we just updated the application in version 2.2 so you can do unlimited calculations without having to use premium. Let us know what you think.

New charges!

Used to be free now you have to ‘go premium’ to get any more than 3 daily calculations!
This used to be a convenient app but not any more... delete!

Almost there

If only it would remember the data and not have you enter it every time you open the app....

Update: fixed one thing, broke a few more. Plus added "pro" for smth that was there before.... Too bad. Had such potential, but it's time to delete it. Adios!

Hi Musashi, We updated the application and added your request. Let us know what you think! VDOT O2

Does its job and does it well, but one suggestion...

Great app and seamless to use.

My only suggestion and wishlist for this app would be to add 6k and 8k to the list of common distances (as I believe the 1600 and 1500 were added not that long ago?) as to make it a little easier instead of having to custom distance those every time for the collegiate users out there and these being two standard cross country distances.

Otherwise thank you for all the hard work you’ve put into making this app what it is!

We've added 6k & 8k distances!

Great but it does bin data all the time

I wish it would remember previous data. It’s a pain to have to re enter data every time you open the app.

Cannot see definitions

This app doesn’t allow you to see their definitions of their workouts, making the times it calculates almost useless. If this would be fixed I would rate it a 5!

They got back to me and fixed the problem. 5/5

James, This was due to an issue with the latest iPhone. We went in and fixed this issue. Can you update to the latest version and let us know if you have any problems? If so- you're welcome to email info@vdoto2.com if you have any problems and we will get back to you ASAP.

Could use 10-miler race distance.

If you beed space, scrap either 3200 or 2-Mile. :-) Thank you!

Has some bugs

You can’t see anything beyond 200 and 400m training results (app won’t let you scroll through the table) and when you click on links for definitions of Threshold, Marathon, etc., it takes you to a page, gives you the first part of each definition and ends in “...” with no ability to see the full definition.

We made an entirely new update. Let us know what you think!

Custom distance doesn’t support metric.

Nice App; but, tried to get result for a recent 8K which is a custom distance and app only has “mi” without ability to change.

Drew, Custom distance used to be set by default measurement but we updated so that you can change the distance there as well based on your feedback. Want to update to the latest version, give it another shot and contact us if you have any problems at info@vdoto2.com?
