대회 날짜만 넣으면 남은 기간 전체의 주차별 훈련 계획이 만들어집니다. 잭 다니엘스의 《Running Formula》 방법론(VDOT)을 그대로 구현했습니다. 기록만 쌓이는 앱이 아닙니다. 계획을 세우고 → 실제로 뛴 결과를 검증하고 → 다음 훈련을 조정하는, 닫힌 루프로 도는 코치입니다. ■ 오늘 컨디션에 맞춘 훈련 처방 아침에 세 번만 탭하면(잠·다리·의욕) 그날 몸 상태가 훈련에 반영됩니다. 어제 강도가 높았거나 피로가 쌓였으면 인터벌 반복 수를 줄이거나 회복 조깅으로 바꿔 제안합니다. ■ VDOT 기반 페이스 처방 E(이지)·M(마라톤)·T(역치)·I(인터벌)·R(레피티션) 존별 페이스를 세션마다 제시합니다. 크루즈 인터벌, 빌드업, 분할 템포까지 구간별로 정확하게 계산합니다. ■ 자동 기록 연동 Apple 건강에서 러닝을 자동으로 가져와 계획과 대조합니다. Strava 연동도 지원하며, km 스플릿과 심박 존, 러닝 이코노미까지 분석합니다. ■ 팀 팀을 만들어 훈련 플랜을 공유하고, 주간 리더보드로 서로를 끌어줍니다. 팀장이 올린 플랜은 각자의 VDOT에 맞는 페이스로 자동 환산됩니다. ■ 대회가 없어도, 이제 막 시작해도 대회 계획이 없으면 유지 러닝으로 시작할 수 있습니다. 아직 30분을 이어 달리기 어렵다면 9주 걷기-달리기 프로그램이 안내합니다. 지금 첫 계획을 만들어 보세요.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: PLCO at none against 러닝메이트 (RunningMate)'s shown. 러닝메이트 (RunningMate)'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
