    11:15 I‘m not sure if it’s just me, but that looks exactly like a blown up version of an iPhone app. Just done by the developer, not zoomed. A lot of unused space and missed opportunity. 😅

    Hello Sam can’t wait to see you today. I would be so excited if you did the Chicago Triathlon - you’ve built up such a great aerobic base from running that you could certainly train for it with a little less than 7 weeks to go

    I went from running 5ks for 10+ years to running a half marathon within 8 months using an app called Gipis. Unfortunately it’s been gone from the App Store since 2014 and haven’t found a similar app. I’ve posted on Facebook and Reddit and no one knows of a running app that offers similar features. It would create custom runs based on goals (like run a half marathon), monitor your speed and tell you to slow down or speed up, and if you missed a run it would reconfigure the schedule, sometimes completely changing future runs. Does any running app do that?

    Just downloaded it on a trial and I already hate that you can't skip more than one week at a time. It forces you into templates but doesn't take into consideration not everyone is working on the same clock when they sign up. I should be able to choose my own training plan and it penalizes you because you didn't use it from the beginning. Plus I don't consider myself elite but their advanced plan is not enough miles.

      @jackieafc Рік тому

      @@coolkidirish it was outside. I had Runna on my Apple Watch and Nike Run on my phone. I was coming up 0.2 miles short on Runna for every mile on Nike run. And it was saying I was doing seven minute mile splits. I’ve never run a seven minute mile in my life! Whereas Nike run had me doing solid 10 minute miles. Runna had my first one at a 10 minute mile, then an 8 then a seven. Again, I’ve never sped up in my life!! Basically on my 10 mile run it had me come up over 1.5 mile short and WAY faster than I am. And that’s just something I can’t use in a running plan

      @@jackieafc Are you POSITIVE that it wasn't a bug showing you KMs instead of miles? A 10 minute mile is a 6 minute KM so the differences you are describing almost line up. Also, I've had this happen on my Garmin for no apparent reason... One day it just told me that I was doing 9:30 per lap, but it was because the laps had switched to miles and I normally use KM.

    I used the garmin trainer for a while and it’s very similar to Runna. The app ask you a few questions about the goals and current performance and it build you a plan, but I agree that the highlight with Runna (which I’m currently using) is the strength added feature. And the best part is that the garmin watch can guide you through the session similar to the Apple Watch or change to other screens (hearth rate, altitude, etc)

      That's what I wanted to know. Which one would you recommend between Runna and Garmin Trainer? I have a half marathon on April 28th, and I'm hesitating between one app or the other to prepare for the remaining 12 weeks. Both seem promising.

    Good review👍 I find there’s a little slippage with the outsoles when taking wet turns. Looking forward to them fixing that with next version later this year! The TR’s I’ve heard are great to run in albeit geared for light trails. I love the shoe minus the traction problems on wet surfaces. Also, do you experience a slapping sound on pavement at slower paces? Minor thing again, since when picking up the pace alleviates that problem. Still, the new forthcoming outsole fix hopefully coming 🙏 should fix that! Good content on video!

Currently 200+ miles into a pair of Peg 39s that I hate and am eyeing a new daily trainer...looking at Novablast 3, Endo Speed 3 and Mach 5. Which do you think is best or should I just get them all?! lol
