Love the app it is non intrusive and it will pause my podcasts instead of talking over them when it gives 30 and 10 second warnings                     Awesome TheSecondSeven
Easy to use Only improvement would be GPS so I don t have to open MapMyRun to track actual distance                 Great Encouraging App IsItDaveOrDavid
If you are looking for a way to ease into running this program is certainly that Excellent guidance pace timing and growth Highly recommend for the beginner who has put off running in the past or has tried and failed because they were too aggressive and or found themselves with an related to poor training                 Outstanding way to enter the running world Frankie NYC
So easy Just follow the instructions and in no time you will be running 30 minutes straight                     It works Gray428
September 12 2017 Update from to Nice to see an update BUMMER I can t connect post to my Facebook anymore Can t have it all I guess May 30 2017 I PURCHASED with MONEY your Get Running app I still use it and really enjoy it BUT I am now getting a warning message that the developer has to update the app to run on future versions of Apple iOS Ummmm should I worry This app has not been touched updated in 4 years since 2013             KNOCK KNOCK anyone there Everynameistaken a;ldjfijefkml
Love the little words of encouragement along the way                     Love it Deerpark007
If you want a solid C25K app that s easy to use without all the BS and terrible design of so many other apps look no further Still getting updates after many years Thank you for an excellent app one of my favorite app purchases                     Excellent and simple Bob197373
This app got me from not running to running a half an hour non stop There something great and encouraging about the voice Maybe it s the British accent Not a lot of talking in between just enough to keep you motivated                     Best simple running app Fish4santo
I never really believed I could build up to running for any amount of time I was soooo out of shape But this app had made it super easy I like the encouraging coaching and how easy it is to repeat a week if I m not quite ready to move up to the next one I ve been doing this program for 6 weeks now and am on Week 4 which has me running up to 5 minutes at a time I would have laughed in your face if you said I could do that before I also like that I can play my own playlist from my music library and the coaching works seamlessly with it Well done I ll be running a 5K in no time                     It s a miracle I m actually running HMac18
I love this app Please update it                     Great App asugarek
I never thought I d like running This app has a great plan to ease you into running more and more I ve tried this before but the trick is to stick with it Run when you are supposed to not when it fits your schedule And when you think it s a big leap in time length it is but you actually CAN do it I was surprised when I completed my runs I reached my goal of running a 5k and already signed up for my next one Highly recommend Also I love the coaching voice She s great                     I actually like running now AswingkidoReview
This is one of the best apps ever I really love it It s totally worth the money                     Awesome app Bbhutton
This is the running app I ve kept I first added it about 5 years ago after having problems with others When I stop for awhile Get Running sounds like an old friend welcoming me back and encouraging me to keep going on what I affectionately call my wog walk jog I ve had friends join me on runs and after hearing this app added it themselves I saw a message about the 32 bit technology I hope there is an update for this app soon so I will be able to continue to use it                     Wonderful App that encourages 5Mav
I hadn t been running in several years due to a knee injury The app got me back into the groove a sexy British voice guiding my progress It s easy to control the pace If you re not ready for a particular increase in duration simply delete that day s log entry and repeat as many time as you wish until you re ready for the next step Brilliant                     Love this app Woodward9594
This app was great for me as a brand new runner It was easy enough that I didn t quit and yet challenging enough to build stamina muscle and endurance I also lost a few pounds which is a double plus for me Wud give 5 stars but haven t been able to figure out how to measure my distance and that wud be nice to know for added motivation                 New runner Christhelpus
I really enjoy this app It s easy to use and the woman s voice is very encouraging giving you updates along the way of how far you have to go That really helps me                     Great running app WHNT.com Webmaster
Used this when I first started running Definitely recommend                     I love this app Whoever0909
Gets you running and closer to your goal                     Love it Adilene1
I was coming off of 3 surgeries and had been out of running for over 6 months This program was the perfect progression to get me back in the game                     Great starter program Hickboy27
Great app It s the only one of its kind that gives you both a 30 and 15 second stop and start running warning For me this feature is indispensable Minus one star because it s in serious need of an upgrade no Apple Watch features Also week 5 jumps you up by too big of an increment It needs to be more gradual in its approach at week 5                 My fav 0 to 5k app PortsmouthPirate
This app is wonderful Claire s a perfect supportive coach for the hard work I ve never been a good runner But this app helped me build my strength and endurance up exactly as it was designed to do I ran my first 5K only a couple of days ago with Calire s voice urging me on towards the finish line and I want to keep on running It s a blast Please build a 10K 1 2 or a full marathon version for those of us who love your app If you re just playing with the idea of achieving a 5K goal and you re a novice or working yourself back into shape this app will help see you through to completion It will                     Success and many thanks Mtn_Fox
So far app has worked very well I give it four out of five stars I m only in my third week I will be back in to get it just review after full use of the app Enjoy everyone                 Foghat Oleeus
An Olympic speed athlete at 15 yrs old I was born to run Life has had a way of allowing me the excuse of interfering from time to time This app gets me going again every time There s no excuse Download get your shoes on and walk out the door                     Thank you oraclesale
I really love this app for the most part It has helped me lose a bunch of weight and feel really strong because I ve gradually worked up to being able to do something I never could ve done a few weeks ago There is one thing I would change and one concern I would change it so that you can set it so it actually pauses your Music or Podcasts rather than just talking over it Because it doesn t pause it you can t really listen to a podcast without having to rewind it every time she speaks The concern I have is that one of the weeks jumps ahead endurance wise It goes from interval running to a 20 minute straight run back to interval running I was able to do this but I know that seeing a 20 minute run could really discourage other people who maybe need to build up more before they can run for that kind of time                 Love it but could use an edit bubblescubed
I love this app I have had it for years and it always gets me back on track with my fitness Before I tried this app I hated running After only a week of using it I was hooked I absolutely love running I have had to stop running several times do to knee injuries weather the holidays etc and this app always get me back on track I start out easy and the intensity increases each week but because the progression is gradual it makes running easy and enjoyable I love discovering what my body is capable of and then going even beyond what I thought I could do Thanks Get Running                     I ve had this app for years Rubberducky197
I ve started this app several times I don t think I ever made it to the end Hopefully I will this time I do get a notice that says the developer needs to update the app                     The app is really good VickiBe
This app absolutely is the best I literally went from sitting on the couch with no activity to running a 5k at the end of the 9 weeks I love the motivation you get as your running I never thought I was capable but I did it                     Get Running Sskinsac
I used this app three years ago to get running again Turned out I was able to do 6 half marathons Quit running for a while but now back at it and using this app to hit my goals BTW I m 50 No excuses Use the app drop the weight and feel better                     Excellent start up Foreveragator
I bought this app and went to use it and it was gone I re downloaded it and it wouldn t download and now I ve looked and it s disappeared again I want my money back     HORRIBLE Skittles286
I d really like to talk to the reviewers who gave this app one star I would ask what they REALLY expected from a get started app because in my opinion this is the best download I ve obtained on my phone thus far I HATED running I repeat I HATED running This app allowed me to see the joy in running For non runners the thought of defeat quickly approaches as you exit your own driveway as I used to admit The key is building your own endurance It s different for everyone For some it takes more time This app allows you to build confidence and proves you ARE capable of enjoying a refreshing jog The voice commands are just what I need to keep going They are encouraging and well placed I love the fact that I can listen to my own music Other apps don t allow that For the people who complained about the cues interrupting your music the cues are all of 5 seconds long Unless you re listening to an audio book it shouldn t effect your music enjoyment My app does pause the music if I change the setting You can also change the setting to cue only essential changes And for the reviewer who complained about the app progressing the length of run times too quickly for their liking there s a very good reason why you can 1 Repeat past runs until you are comfortable bumping to the next level 2 Or you can also LISTEN TO THE CUES that say if you re getting fatigued to slow your pace This app requires common sense so if you ve got it you ll love it as much as I do                     LOVE it Kalteicher
This has been great I never thought I would be a runner and I am halfway through The encouragement from the friendly voice I highly recommend this is you have even an inkling you want to do a 5k or more                 Love this app
For being reasonably priced this app has an intuitive interface is simple to use and never crashes It works while my iPod is dark and doesnt kill my battery You dont have to import your music and can use normal iTunes playlists It automatically dims your music when it gives you commands and even tells you when you should turn around I am not a runner and I always feel encouraged when I use this app to help me get through an exercise session                 Great app
After being that kid in grade school who came in last for running the mile Im now running 28 minutes straight in my 8th week of running The pacing of the running increases is perfect Every time the intervals increased I thought I couldnt do it but I did It feels great I hope to keep increasing after the 9th week to 40 minutes then just increase speed                 Got me running for the first time in my life
First off let me say I do love this app But it needs a couple of upgrades and glitches fixed before it is a great app One Even tho the app says it will pause your music when the coach talks it just doesnt No matter how you set it up the app simply will not pause your iTunes But my second issue is the deal breaker for me There is no distance function so you have no way to record your runs and distance For a couch to 5K app theres no way to know how far youre running or how close you are to your goal That means you have to have a second running app running at the same time if you want that information And whats the point of that           Could be better
started my second week I used to loathe running now I look forward to my next run the coach tells you when to walk when to run she even tells you when its almost time to runyou have 10 seconds left good app                 so far so good
Great app Simple and easy to follow                 Love it
Love this program Super easy interface can choose amount of verbal coaching you get and it really works I use this app to run with friends from work and we plan on entering our first 5K run in a few weeks No one can believe it I used to hate exercise especially running                 Got me off my fanny
Ive used this app for 3 years now Mostly to jump start my training after long breaks from running Great But one flaw that this app has is that it doesnt track distance It only tracks 30 minute runs without taking into account that everyone runs at a different pace After simultaneously using another app that tracks time pace and distance I soon realized that this app left me a few feet short of running an actual 5K This is a great app is a great aid for beginners and those who need a refresher with running a 5K Use another app simultaneously with this one to more accurately measure your runs and youre good to go              Good app to get started but
Love the app just wish it had audio for a final run with some sort of congratulations for finishing the program                 No finale
I just finished this app and if you want to learn to run this is the app to get I couldnt run 30 seconds when I started and I just signed up for my first 5k I hope it only grows from here                 Awesome
This app really works Started running for the first time nine weeks ago Finished my first charity run today Great interface no unnecessary features reminds you when to run and when to rest I wish this company made more fitness apps                 Finished my first 5k today
Even though Im giving 5 stars I wish this app should show the distance in each runwalk I truly enjoy this app and it has worked very well in get me running but allowing us to know the distance of each runwalk would be a great and motivational feature                 Distance missing
This app is so wonderful me and my husband started this program back in September and are both now running 30 min nonstop three times a week Still working on our speed Ive never been someone who loves running and when Ive tried running in the past been met with excruciating knee pain within the first three weeks This app really helped me start slow and easy and pushed me when I needed it Many times I didnt think I could do the run it had scheduled for me but I surprised myself and was always able to Very happy with the results highly recommend to anyone wanting to go from couch to 5k Worth every penny                 It really works
Im trying to get back to running after laying off for far too many years I started with the C25K free app which I liked but couldnt upgrade due to my iPod Touch being unable to run the required software version I found Get Running and I love it I like the visual display that lets me know how far along am as I can read it without my glasses The sound prompts that let me know Im halfway through a run or that Ive only got 15 seconds more are great and help me keep going                 Really like this app Claire is great
This app is amazing I am only in week three right now but this app has taken me from hating to run to loving to run cant wait until the next day that I get to run Seriously its a great app with a great coach and a totally doable patternprogram Start this app you wont be sorry                 Made me love to run
Helps increase endurance over time by regimented incremental run times Love it                 Great app
Love this app I went from non runner to 5k runner Wish there was a app to bridge to a 10k                 Im now a 5k runner
Helped me run 5k for the first time ever                 Works great
This app really helped me go from cant run around the block to running 3 miles Program is nice and gradual and its great to have a trainer telling you what to do Now that I am a runner I need more but it was exactly what I needed to get going Well done              Just what I needed
Very motivational easy to use my music can play in the background never has crashed now I on the other hand Now I am an advancing runner and I use the app to time a faster running pace with jogging instead of walking in between the runs This app has been worth the moneyget it                 Fantastic
As an app it works well enough The first couple weeks are fine but as the program goes on it feels like Run Fatboy Run I wish it scaled up slower I dont need to run a 5k in 2 months just eventually Also sometimes the app will pause Could be my fault but also might not be              A bit optimistic
Love this app it makes going from not running to running 5K very doable I needed someone to tell me when to walk and when to run I didnt give it 5 stars only because I wish it had the option of a longer warmup and cool down on the days when I have time              Very effective
This is the best couch to 5k app Ive seen Ive tried a couple different ones but this is really the best Positive encouragement and praise but not so much to be intrusive or annoying I love being able to use my music I am almost done with the programif only there was a step up app to get to a 10kplease                 Best Couch to 5k app
Doesnt have a lot of bells and whistles bur Works fine on my iPhone 4S with iOS 6 Plays my playlist while running Only a few bucks so its very worth it i think                 Solid app
If you are a couch potato like me you will love this app This app got me running I get excited about my running days The voice is nice and gives simple commands After this app I will then move onto 5K to 10K app                 I love this app
I have attempted to start running many times before and have always hated it This app changed all that and got me seriously hooked on running It pushes you just the right amount so that you are progressing but not getting discouraged I had no trouble finishing and have since several months later completed my first half marathon and am training for a full My 54 year old father has also just completed the program and loved it as well I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to get in shape or wants to start running                 Highly recommend this app
It really helped me to get started running again after a pretty bad injury                 I love this app
Has really helped me to start running Maybe ramps up a little bit quick from week 3 to 4 but its helping me a lot                 Great to help get your butt off the couch
Been using it for 2 years to prep for spring and summer runs Never lets me down Works well with pandora and with my Nike running app                 Great app
If it worked for this couch potato itll work for anyone I am still amazed that I managed to run 20 min continuously Im on week 6 If youre consistent you too will be running a 5k before you know it Do they have a 5k to 10k app                 Its a miracle
Great way to get from inactive to on the run Would like to see 10K app by the same developer                 Great App
This app works great I cant think of a feature its missing I cant wait to complete the program                 Love it
I love the timely information the coach gives along the way Not only does it prep you for the next run it is very encouraging as well Not too muchjust right It gets me through the run of the day even when sometimes I dont think Im going to make it Worth every penny                 Great Motivator
Was on my couch 8 short weeks ago and today I completed a 6K Couldnt have done it without this app Thanks                 Did It
A simple tell me what to do kind of app No frills and it works I really like the basic interface and just following orders You did not see that coming In all honesty I got back into running because of this app and will be graduating to train for a 10K soon Worth every penny                 Just what I wanted
This app is helpful to help you train for your first 5k I recommend that you allow more like 12 weeks than 9 from start to finish By the time I got to 9 weeks where you are running 30 minutes continuously I realized I was only running 2 miles in that time So it took a couple more weeks to get up to a 5k Also I wish you could turn off the vocal cues entirely because they dont pause for podcasts or audiobooks Regardless I recommend this app because it truly did help me complete my first 5k              Ran my first 5k last month
I love this app simple and effective I had an injury and always returned to run too hard so I committed to following the program It allowed me to moderate and build up strength without re injury Couldnt be happier                 Great for recovery
This really does help you get from the couch to actually loving running Im addicted It helped me get into shape with my baby In all honesty I abandoned my efforts a couple of times but always came back because this app was so easy to use This app is the business                 Absolute perfection
This app really got me off the couch Im running for the first time in my life and love it Highly recommended                 Best 299 spent in my life
This app is fantastic Great audio recordings even as a lady I love the Aussie female intuitive and beautiful run UI allows you to skip through events in a run if for some reason you need to Dims music during speech when I use Nike Running to track my run Overall very happy with this Now if they make a 10k version or a marathon one Ill pounce on it immediately                 Absolutely worth paying for
Ive tried several running apps both paid and free and by far this is the best If youre looking for a couch to 5K program that works look no further                 Best App To Start Running
I have tried several couch to 5K apps and this one is the best by far I actually ran 2 miles today which seemed impossible a few weeks ago                 This is the best app Ive used
Great easy to use app What sets this app apart from others is the option for coaching throughout the entire workout                 Love IT
Absolutely love this app It change my life from someone who could never think about running to someone who finished a 5k then ran a sprint triathlon I dropped 50 lbs the first time I used it then had an unrelated injury and gained most of it back Im starting back again and have already started seeing results by week 3 I only wish they had a 10k app with the same type of cues I like bluefins Bridge to 10k but would prefer these voice cues instead of a ding                 Incredible app
I had to do week 1 twice but I did it Update Today I finished my first run of week 2 This is so great Update I just finished my first run of week 4 As with the first run of each of the previous three weeks I thought sure I would die But I didnt Im alive and feeling great Update Today I finished the last run of week 5 my first 20 minute jog with no walking This time I did not feel like I was about to die Aside while I had to repeat week 1 I havent had to repeat any weeks since This is so cool PS Im a 76 not 72 year old codger                 Awesome
I was a devout antirunner I could not understand why anyone would willing run especially with nothing changing him or her This app got me off my lazy butt and running a 5k Me Someone who vowed never to take up running Please please please make a 10k version The other 10k apps arent nearly as good as this 5k app                 Even the laziest person will become a runner
Greateasy to use app Ive been running in the park a few times a week Very exciting for a nonrunner                 Fantastic
I actually cried when I crossed the finish line I never thought IN MY LIFE that I could do it Thank you Get Running                 Cried
Im so thankful for this app The voice and graphics are pleasant but most importantly it works Ive gotten fit without hurting myself or becoming discouraged I can listen to a podcast check this apps display read my email etc and this app keeps working in the background only interrupting when needed and my podcast or music keeps playing Its seamless                 Motivates this couch potato
Please make a 10K version of this app It is a wonderful motivator Been using for 2 weeks and will be running my first 5K in 3 weeks I havent been following the breaks youre suggested to but I have found the app incredibly motivating and fun Worth the money                 Worth it
