S.R.C is a community, a community in which everyone is welcome, the idea is to get you motivated and running, but, if you are not there yet, hopefully we can bring you closer to achieving your goals. If you've been sat on your bum for the last 20 years and success for you is going for a 15min walk after work, then we'll celebrate that as much as someone setting their PB on a 5k. We are not a hardcore running app, we'd just rather you did SOMETHING and more than that, we would rather you enjoyed yourself whilst doing it... or thinking about doing it... join us!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SRC at none against Run Half Marathon's 6. SRC also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 12 months). Run Half Marathon's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
