2/5Mixed feelings
I could easily run a 5k prior to starting this app and this app was well reviewed for moving onto a half, however after 6 weeks in, and previewing what’s to come, it’s not really made for those who want to build to RUN. I really appreciated the run/walk format for the first few weeks, but then when I previewed the upcoming weeks, I noticed that you never run for more than 4 minutes at a time the entire program. This builds you to run/walk your half, and on top of that, the app has you run/walking a full half marathon TWO DAYS before the race, which is irresponsible in my opinion. Every other program recommends you run your max distance 2+ weeks before and wind down until the race…I unsubscribed and chose a different app for the latter half of my training.

5/5Third time around and still love it
This is exactly the app I need. I used this one and the marathon trainer to build all the way up to an actual marathon I ran in 2021. I’m still going with it to maintain my fitness. It’s a perfect fit for me: all I really need is someone in my ear telling me when it’s time to run and when it’s time to walk so I don’t play a bunch of mind games and bargain with myself about some landmark I’ll run to or the constant struggle of whether it’s okay to walk yet. I just do what it says and I can focus on my podcasts/audiobooks instead. The voice is encouraging. The new affirmations are corny but I love them for it.. makes me laugh out loud almost every time. Highly recommended if you’re like me!

5/5First half or coming back from an injury? This is PERFECT!
First of all, read the description before buying this app. This isn't an app that trains you to run a half marathon the whole time. It trains you do walk/run at a consistent time and pace the entire time. Once you know that, go read the research about how interval training is the way of the future and even professional runners are doing it. It's not for the weak. I'm coming back from a torn ACL and 2 surgeries so I need to take it slow and be smart. This app is amazing for exactly that. I hate having to time myself during interval training and the built-in instructions make it so I don't have to. Add in some workout jams and I've got a perfect training partner. I usually give up on these apps after a few tries. But I'm still going strong and that Napa Valley half is looking closer every day!

5/5Great for those trying to get back in the game
So I am 24 years old and have had two knee surgeries and for the last 5 years I have made every excuse to not have to try and get back to my previously athletic self. I have struggled mostly because of self esteem and every workout was difficult because it was mainly speed oriented and distanced. Needless to say the day after a workout I would be unable to walk. The nice thing about this workout is it is challenging but realistic and not painful to do. Granted I’m sore the next day but I can walk. I actually look forward to working out. I will post again when I have completed the entire training because I am registered for the Disney Princess Half Marathon in February so I am hoping to finish in a reasonable amount of time and I’m using this app as my training plan. I highly recommend it.

3/5Great if you wanna Boy Scout run a whole 13.1
Basics that turned me off: -requires 4-6 day commitment a week -trains on short intervals, kind of like the 5k app but for the whole 13.1. This isn’t shown in the previews anywhere so I’d like to put that out there. -Doesn’t fit well with the 5k and 10k trainers, in pace or like, picking up where they leave off. -kind of confusing and bland, especially if you’re a beginning runner/this is your first 13.1 event. (Why am I do any of this?? Ugh, I wanna keep running...) -lots of stopping and starting, more or less amounts to wind sprints for 5mi+ (eek!!) I did C25k and 10k through zenlabs, so I thought it would be a good bet to buy this!! It wasn’t really; started ok the first couple weeks with the small runs, then my joints started killing week five, esp around my ankles. I’m fully capable of running a good 35-50 mi a week with no issues, so having changed nothing else, it made no sense I was having pain that consistently. I think it’s fine to stop and start that much for like, 3mi but at anything further I was really interrupting momentum, and I could feel it when I “started walking.” Fully believe in interval training but this ain’t it. It doesn’t let you customize at all (for experience, amount of days you want to train), and it’s hurting me lol. A bit of a departure from the 5k and 10k apps in that it assumes you want to Boy Scout run a whole event. I wonder if it’s be better for injuries/getting back after some time out of running, or if you just wanted to walk the 13.1. Going to the underarmor app; it still does intervals but it lets you adjust for previous experiences (so not starting me at the baby bottom). I’m a nurse so adjusting to like, four days a week of training instead of 6 on this is app is A LOT more practical. I can also just free run, and the reviews are better than this :)
