I have been running off and on (more off than on) for years. Running with a puppy is not always easy, and the ability to pause my run to attend to her needs is very helpful. The countdown and notifications during each walk/run segment makes each run easier. It’s helpful to have an overview of each run prior to starting my run, and my endurance builds with each session, which increases my confidence to run a 5K and beyond. The statistics reflects the progress being made during each run, along with overall progress. I highly recommend this app for anyone interested in becoming (or returning as) a runner.

I had to stop my running (okay, jogging) routine for 6 months while undergoing cancer treatment. Came out the other side ready to pick up where I left off, but found (to no one’s surprise) that I no longer had the stamina to run.

This app has been bringing me back to my former slow-but-steady form at a pace I can handle. I’m so happy to have found it!

It doesn’t have a lot of bells, whistles, and pre-programmed encouraging phrases, but I like that it alerts me each minute that goes by. I can’t wait to find out how it gets me from running a certain amount of time to running a certain distance.

I was looking for a simple, straight forward app to help me get back into a running program. It is doing just that. Downside is it is only designed for outdoor running though and I have been doing all my running on the treadmill so it does not accurately calculate my pace or distance. I like that it gives you prompts for when to run/walk so I can listen to my music and not have to be looking at the timer to know when to start running/walking again. I do wish the voice prompt was a little louder.
