  • Not great, keep looking

    I used this to train for a recent 5k- the training runs were impossible for me from the get go and I never completed one without stopping and walking. As I train for a 10k, I hope to find an app that is do-able AND pushes me to work harder. When you can’t tell if you actually ran for 35 minutes (the first week suggests that’s possible), it’s impossible to know, when doing that same run 4,5,6 weeks later, if you’re improving. And, the prompts often turned off! So I was kinda doin my own thing I suppose. Ugh.
  • Keeps me motivated!!

    I started with the 5K App 8 months ago. That got me from barely running three minutes to running a 5k easily. Then did the 10K, successfully completed that. Now I’m doing this 5k pacer and am excited to do it again now that I’m about finished. After another round of this, I’ll do the marathon training. The variability of the runs keeps me motivated, as I get bored easily. Love it! Thank you!!
  • Coding issue

    Some of your coding is off for when to switch paces and half way marks. But I like the progression of runs.
  • No cue to run

    One of the cues to run didn’t speak so I walked both sessions.
  • Please make Apple Watch compatible!

    I love this app (and the whole family of apps) and I’ve been able to start running, get a 5k distance, run that faster and now I have my sights set on a 10K for fall! The interval setup has been perfect for me and pushed me just enough without feeling incapable. My only complaint about the app is that it doesn’t have a version for my Apple Watch. I would love to have it buzz on my wrist to move on to the next run/walk/faster portion. Please consider making that an update!
  • No way to see improvement, no running stats

    I finished the 5k pro app and was pretty happy with it so got the 5k pacer to continue my workouts. So far I’ve been disappointed. There is no way to see/measure your pace so I have no idea if I’m making progress. I had to get MapMyRun to keep track of my pace. You can’t even calculate your running pace because of the 5 minute walks before and after the runs.
  • Worse than the free one

    Can’t end the run. It thinks I am still on it. But I hit did it several times and it keeps adding the same unfinished run.
  • Just right!

  • GPS does not track

    I used to love this company’s apps because their programs really worked. But in the last 6 months, the gps has not being tracking my runs. I went through their manual and talked to their customer service. I was told by them that iPhones and their apps are having issues and they are working it out. After two months, and it is still not tracking my runs. I have to go with another app service.
