1. 5/5Holy Grail of Running Training & Accountability Apps

   I’m 7 days into the 30-day challenge and I’m already convinced this app is going to make me a better runner. The training focuses on sustainable, strong, and injury-free running. It’s also keeping me motivated when all of my races and running groups have been canceled. I like workout apps. I’ve tried a bunch of them. But most of them are like: here’s a really detailed gym workout and oh yeah do 30 mins of cardio twice a week. And I’m stuck trying to fit my half marathon training schedule around a schedule that doesn’t prioritize running part. This is the app I’ve been searching for. It’s got intervals. It’s got drills. It’s got foam rolling. It’s got strength training specifically for runners. Its got coaches you can interact with and ask questions. It’s got beautiful SF scenery that makes me curse the day I moved away from the best city in the world. If you want the accountability and expertise of a running coach without the giant price tag, this is the app for you! The app is a little glitchy and a little clunky, but is still a 5-star app. The content is excellent and the IT response to the issues is apologetic and relatively quick. Spring roll for the year subscription. 👍🏻

2. 5/5Best comprehensive running program!

   TRE offers the running program I’ve been hoping to find for the past 10 years. It offers multiple training tracks that cover different distances, ability levels, and injury status. The emphasis is on good form and quality runs, which they back up with built in strength and cross training days. I haven’t gotten that anywhere else! The coaches also encourage you to stray from a program if it doesn’t feel right. I was on my way back from an achilles injury when I joined and got lots of positive support from coaches and the community for swapping an interval workout with a mobility one. And yet having a program to follow has been huge for my motivation and accountability. As far as the app itself goes, I have only minor issues. I wish the next training session of my program would show up when I open the app. I skipped a workout earlier and now I have to scroll down from that day to get to where I left off. It could navigate more smoothly, but any limitations are more than made up for by the incredible content!

3. 5/5Great training programs!

   Each program concentrates on the different aspects of training (nutrition, strength, core work, etc) that most people forget about or decide to ignore or skip, typically ending in injury. Modifications and different levels of exercises are suggested so that any runner, no matter their current level of fitness, can reach their goals. Sometimes the app can be a little buggy, but their customer service is great! They will always respond to concerns about the app or questions about the programs! TRE includes a supportive community, too! I was able to train for my first half marathon successfully because of TRE. I’m currently using their marathon training program to train for my first marathon in the fall. Thank you TRE for all that you do and for helping me realize that I am a runner and that I can accomplish whatever I set my mind to!

4. 4/5Great training resources, tech needs work

   I run marathons and rely heavily on online coaching for my training. I previously used SportMe and am shocked at the quality difference with TRE. The training is thorough and has completely overhauled my running form. I’ve never felt better running. My only critique is the actual user experience. I can’t use the app to record my runs as it’s faulty and messes with my music volume and often pauses itself or resets mid-run. I end up starting the workout to read the daily routine before closing the whole app to record on my Apple Watch. For the price I think this feature could be improved. Nit picking here, but I really wish the strength workouts were full videos rather than clips. They are so dull to complete, especially since the clips replay themselves and I’m completely wiped out from completing my 150th burpee. It’s always more encouraging for me to workout with the trainer going through it alongside. But still worth it. Thanks for building such a great resource!

5. 5/5LOVE the advice!!!

   Long story short, I had two injuries to my left foot (fracture followed by arch collapse) 6 years ago and it’s been an adventure getting back into running. I’ve slowly improved and then would have a setback and this just repeated for years. I finally got to the point I could run for about 30 seconds and could walk for 60 and repeat for about 20 minutes. But my feet didn’t feel right. They didn’t feel strong, I could tell they were flexing when they shouldn’t and not flexing when they should and I had no idea how to fix it. I watched ONE video and did the exercises for 3 weeks and I am now running pain free, and it is so comfortable!!! I literally have not felt this good in 7 years and I’m so excited to keep going on my running journey. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your knowledge!
