So far so good! Loving the app. And keeps me in check knowing I usually push too much in any sport or event I do and end up injuring myself everytime. So I’m happy I get to have this on my watch and phone. I’m obsessed with checking it off my list everyday and looking forward to actually running
This was once my favorite app but now the free version is so limited it’s borderline useless. I want to be able to move workouts throughout the week. Id prefer to use the app but with its limitations, and a costly subscription plan, I’m better off using ai to create a more custom and flexible plan. Ive been a Runna user since they launched - when it felt like they actually cared about their users. Now it seems they’ve fallen to corporate greed. Extremely disappointing.
I used runna to improve my 5k pacing, I was excited because I’ve heard great things. Not only did I run a slower 5k than my usual/previous 5ks but I also had to stop so many times because the plan made me so unprepared. Very disappointed.
I am the type of person that has to be told what I need to do to be better. Runna is a coach that keeps you on pace, target time, and pushes you there. I love it and can’t wait to run my first half with it in my ear!
As an experienced runner, I thought I’d be able to hop in buy a subscription and be able to use this digital format, but unfortunately, there’s no desktop support to it which is totally fine, but the app is glitching and it doubles up your runs and I have several runs scheduled in one day and I bought the yearly subscription and I found out you can’t get a refund because I don’t fall within the refund. Which is 48 hours from the time of purchase. That’s totally fine. I’m gonna have to end up taking the loss with this, but you’re better off just getting a spreadsheet and following it online. I have a hard time with starting the runs on the app and my phone and it doesn’t properly track your runs. I ran 7 miles a few days ago and it tracked it as 6 miles.
Many times, the app does not properly communicate with my Apple Watch so I cannot actually start the Runna workout on my watch-face. (It starts to load, but then never actually starts the workout on my watch, and I end up having to use the default Apple Watch tracking feature while also using the Runna app on the phone screen, which probably isn’t as accurate and doesn’t give as many queues.) This issue happens often. When it works, it’s awesome… the action callouts are excellent, it tracks your pace well, and gives useful stats in an optimal layout. But I feel like most of the time it doesn’t work, which is frustrating bc I already paid the app for a year. I have tried updating my watch, refreshing the connection through the app, trying both WiFi and offline - nothing improves. Please address this issue, I paid for the Live-action voice coaching and for it to track through my Apple Watch. This is a crucial feature and it never works!
Love this app so far - it’s been as good as Zwift or Sufferfest for training, but for running. My only criticism is I wish it had better AI Coach voices aside from the standard female robot.
Simply trying to go from couch to 5k. Nobody in their right mind with no running experience is going to pay $20/month after week 2. Misleading. Sad.
I used to train with groups. This marathon training, I decided to go solo. This app is like having your own running coach. It provides strength, flexibility and running programming and schedules everything into a workable routine.
I’m using this app to help with pacing and work towards a faster run time overall. I like that it tells you when you’re on target or when your pace is too fast or too slow. I’m usually too fast at the beginning of the run and it tells me to slow down and the pace I’m running at versus the target pace. I also enjoy that my watch buzzes to signify when I’m closing a lap so I know when I’m about to adjust pace. The adjustable program has been good so far too. On week 4 currently and definitely enjoying it.
Clunky interface and bit annoying to use. Cancelled in <1 month but still have to ride out billing. Much better apps out there with less friction.
I’ve been training with Runna for four weeks now. The day I started I couldn’t run a mile without stopping. Yesterday I ran 5 no issue. It works. It’s worth it.
