Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Run Mapper at none against Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer's 5. Run Mapper also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (67% vs 56%). Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 6). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Run Mapper asks for nothing beyond the download.
Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer has 5.6K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer's written reviews are positive against 67% of Run Mapper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
