Runna: Running Plans & Coach

I suspect the training routines are generated by AI, because they're absolutely awful. The amount of running per session will drop by half, then triple, then jump back to a week earlier... I've tried deleting the plans and regenerating any it never gets better. As far as I can tell there's no way to edit a run or create a custom one, so you can't even tweak the duds to try and salvage it. I've given it a chance for a couple months but will look elsewhere.

The coaching features and program gets 5 stars, however the app glitches all the time. For example, I was in the cool down portion of my workout, clicked into another app, and when I clicked back into Runna, the app went white and wouldn't do anything. This happens quite a bit and the only solution to get Runna working again is to uninstall and reinstall the app. so pretty frustrating, especially because I'm paying for the app and it didn't record my workout.

Great app, simple, intuitive, and easy to adjust plans. However, the training progression felt too aggressive. It jumped from a 3.8 mile run at 5.1 mph to 10 miles in under two weeks, which did not seem safe. It would also be helpful to add a true run walk run feature where you can program timed run and walk intervals. Overall solid, but be cautious with mileage increases.

Edit: They change the Terms and Conditions and force you to accept prior to continuing. They don't tell you what the changes are, rather expect you to read the entire documents to find them. Shady. I start the app on my phone at the same time as my Garmin X1. Perfectly synced. At the end of a scheduled 28min guided run, the app is nearly a full minute behind the Garmin. The app also sometimes skips telling me lap instructions and transition times. Will not be making a subscription at this time.

I just kept getting slower trying to pile on distance with the goal of a half marathon. No Lofty speed goals. Just finish. Then I decided to try this app. Within a few weeks I was hooked. I loved that there were weight sessions you could add in with multiple scenarios of available weight training tools. I met my goal pace and distance for the half and am now doing a 5k plan to increase pace. Love all the options!
