Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RaceTec Toolkit at none against RunCalendar's 1. RaceTec Toolkit also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). RunCalendar's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
