8 of 15I bought this app years ago, and I always come back to it in the spring. I do a terrible job of keeping up my cardio in the winter, and this app helps me ease back into my running workouts without going overboard. This app pre plans running workouts for me, making it harder for me to cut my runs short if I were to be in charge. Definitely worth my money.
I’m in my 30s and used to run long distance in high school. Life has definitely thrown me off of the running streak I had in my 20s. But this app has helped me start at a reasonable place when I’ve fallen off. I know how easy it is to get injured by doing too much. But I really appreciate how it slows me down into a more reasonable goal. I’ve loved it and fully believe it will help me accomplish my goal of running miles comfortably again.
This program is great at progressing you in a way that makes you succeed. I’m technically done with the program but I still run with it every single time.
My wife suggested it and I don’t like running at all, never have. However, this has helped me to get back into running, especially since Uncle Pete upped the standards to 2 miles as opposed to 1.5 for the run. I have noticed I have less injuries doing it this way so I highly recommend!
Unable to get passed free trial/ $50 subscription
Waiste of time . Pur all your information in and then hit a paywall
I used this app back in 2019 to get ready for my first 5k. It was only $12 for 12 weeks which was great. It also offered a couple different options for different prices. Just redownloaded it and not only did they get rid of the options but now it’s $50! Definitely not worth that much. On to a different app…
Chargeback initiated. This app billed me after one day when it showed 7 day trial. Fraud case opened with Apple and my cc company.
