About this app

Your running plan – as individual as you are.

running.COACH creates your personal training plan, analyzes every session, and automatically adapts the plan to your progress. Whether you're just starting out or training specifically for a marathon: your plan adapts to you – not the other way around.

Behind running.COACH stand European Champion Viktor Röthlin and Olympic marathoner Matthias Kyburz – their elite-sport expertise is built into every plan. Over 200,000 runners already train with running.COACH.

Try it free for 14 days – with full access to all features. No automatic renewal: you actively decide whether to continue.

YOUR PLAN THINKS ALONG
After every session, running.COACH analyzes your training using AI and adjusts the intensity and content to your development. Your predicted race time is also updated continuously – so you can see realistically where your current training is heading.

TRAINING PLANS FOR EVERY DISTANCE
From 5 km through 10 km and the half marathon to the marathon – and everything in between. Including mountain running plans with targeted tips for elevation and terrain.

FEEDBACK AFTER EVERY WORKOUT
Detailed feedback right after each session and each race, plus a weekly summary of your development. So you always know where you stand.

ADAPTS TO YOUR DAILY LIFE
Choose your training days freely and move individual sessions flexibly. If your goal or race date changes, running.COACH automatically calculates a new plan – without starting over.

EASY SYNC WITH YOUR SPORTS WATCH
Compatible with Garmin, Polar, Suunto, Coros, Fitbit, Apple Watch, and Strava. Your workouts are transferred automatically – your plan is always based on your real performance data.

I purchased the bronze package after forgetting to use my trial some time ago. At first glance, the programming seems solid. The performance nutrition is vague, but accurate. I went on my first run today, and was met with great disappointment. First, the app isn't very friendly to foreigners, as it fails to track your location outside its home country and as a result fails to track distance. The voice is very stale. The app overall is outdated and glitchy. HUGE potential, but needs an overhaul.

I've been using the app for 2 years and made great progress. The app works well, no login problems. But key advantage: the training is always well adapted to my fitness level and race predictions are insanely accurate! So much better than Garmin coach. Also considers gradient / running uphill, which is another advantage. Also works great with Garmin devices. Finally, the coaching answers are top (I have silver deal), they really know their stuff. Overall, really solid coaching app!

This App has guided me excellently through my last marathons. The training plan is sufficiently flexible to allow for adaptations and is constantly adjusted to your actual training level. The tracking of the trainings via the App doesn't always work and my Samsung watch is not supported, hence one star deduction.
