Reviews
All reviews →Not entirely clear...
I want to like this app because I loved the Couch to 5k predecessor... but they havent been clear on the difference between a jog and a run. Couch to 5k build you up to a point where youre jogging 30 minutes... and now, suddenly, on Day 2 of this new app Im being directed to "run" for 30 minutes. What does that mean? On Day 1, I was told to run for jog for 10 minutes, run for 3 minutes, and jog for 10 minutes. I made it 2.5 minutes before I had to slow to a jog. So, what kind of jump is that? Am I supposed to jog a little harder? Or am I supposed to run like my house is on fire? What constitutes a difference between a jog and a run that is sustainable for 30 minutes straight? Perhaps Ive been running this whole time and thought I was jogging, I just cant imagine going faster so soon when Ive just become comfortable with a 30 minute "jog". Perhaps if the app recognized your typical jogging pace and encouraged you to hit a new benchmark by going 6mph instead of your usual 4mph, for example. That would help clarify what Im supposed to do today, because frankly Im stumped and dont want to burn out too soon.
Motivating
Great app!
Great app!
Easy to use and motivating
Almost perfect!
This app is great and overcomes the faults of competitor apps Ive tried and abandoned (e.g., is flexible in start date and re-doing runs, unlike Nike+; does not rely on run-walk method, unlike C210K). The music controls work well and I like that you can skip the warm-up/cool down portion as well. The runs are motivating, attainable, and yet are improving my pace and endurance - I also like that you can change the coach voices! My only complaint is that the halfway-mark feature does not seem to be working, even though it is clearly turned on. I have to rely on watching the time or using Nike+ in the background (which I always do anyway for logging purposes). Fix this, and its perfect! Well done, Active!
Great App, but Where is Runicorn?
Has Runicorn given up on me? Sad. So sad.
My next challenge
Three years ago I used Couch to 5K to lose 50 pounds. It took me two tries to make it through the program, but I did it. This year I had some disruptions in my life and got off track. Did the program again and moved onto this one. Sometimes I have to repeat workouts until I can finish them. I am glad it gives me the flexibility to do so without erasing prior attempts.
Great follow up
I used Couch to 5k to go from not being able to run down the block to regularly running miles. I decided to go for a 10k and this app delivered exactly what I expected. Well worth the cost.
