Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this different from other running training plans?

Unlike a generic running program, our program is tailored to your current ability and specific target pace. We use our Running Calculator and data from thousands of runners to create a plan that’s right for you. You'll also get direct access to coaches for questions and movement feedback, plus a supportive community—so you’re never training alone.
No prior experience or set race goal is required. Whether you’re aiming for your first 5K or chasing a marathon PR, we’ll assess your fitness and build a plan that meets you where you are.
Most runners complete 3–5 workouts per week, balancing easy runs, speed intervals, long runs and recovery sessions.
You’ll have direct access to your coach via the app for form feedback, training check-ins, and on-the-fly plan tweaks whenever life or training throws you a curveball.
Whenever you want—the program is ready to go as soon as you are. Jump in on your schedule and begin tackling your running goals today.

With a fixed-length program you buy the program up front for a single one-off payment and then have access to the entire program immediately.
