Get ready for your first half marathon by training with Hal Higdon the best known running author and athlete. His training programs have helped thousands reach their running goals, and this half marathon app will ...
Ive only used this for a short while but have already heard the same lackluster coaching tips over and over The app also plays the same music from my selection again and again Though this is probably more of a GPS problem Ive noticed that it will tell me Im halfway at different points on the same course on different days It also told me I had more distance to go on an out and back when Id reached the finish For a 10 app Id expect a little more enthusiasm and variety           Groundhog Day
The GPS feature in this app is way off In runs it reads 6 miles before the 4 mile mark very disappointing     GPS incorrect
I love to hear Hal say your doing greatand Keep going                 Great Running Partner
I like the program but its frustrating that its erasing my workouts on the days I dont run When I bike swim or elliptical on cross days Id like the app to show that I completed that day For 10 I feel like thats not too much to ask           Needs some tweaking
I was so excited that there was an app to help track my progress to my first half marathon but I was really disappointed that I couldnt start the program on any day except a Monday Im sure this works for most people with Mon Fri jobs but I cant do my long runs on a weekend since those are my main work days Can you please add the ability to start the program any day of the week           Good but needs some enhancements
Ever since the new update I have been having much trouble whenever I lock the screen the time and the distance travel both pause and didnt start back until I opened to check which was a couple miles later I always go on the last lane of the track and whenever I walk it it says a different distance than when I run it Im not gonna use this app again until the next update        Frustrating
Great                 Great
I am currently using the app to train for a half marathon Ive done a few 5Ks in the past and feel that the pace of the program really helps my body slowly but surely adjust to running a half marathon However I hope that the next update includes two new features One is that it would be nice for the app to let me know my pace and time elapsed whenever it tells me how many miles I have left Second I wish that the app could play a selected power song to help me pick up the pace while I become sluggish on a long run I used to use the Nike running app before this one and miss these features that are included in the Nike app              Great but lacks a couple key features
This training plan is helping me achieve more than I thought I could do Easy to follow                 Motivating
Feeling pretty good Love the countdown and the motivational tips                 So far lovin it
I love this program Hals encouragement along the way though extremely cheesy makes me laugh and keeps me goal oriented Wish he gave more instruction for the stretchstrength training days But overall Im psyched                 Amazing
My race is typically off by half a mile on this app Not acceptable It has frozen up and Ive emailed the company with no response Would not recommend this app     Not a good Gps tracker at all
I am new to running and this app is a perfect mix of goals encouragement and training                 Perfect
If you follow it it works              Used it for 4 halfs
It constantly locks up Doesnt work Elementary design Not user friendly Cant change start day to Sunday or Monday depending if you are following his bookwebsite app starts on Sunday regardless Doesnt show day of weekjust goes by day number so you can very easily get confused Even has constant misspellings throughout page and messages Company needs to take a look at other running apps and make this one more user friendly and attractive Love Hal Higdons plan but this app stinks     Worst Running App Waste of 10
I was hoping to be able to some what control my rest days I do my cross training on TuesdayThursday due to my work and school schedule Would be great if it could be personalized Looking for an app similar to this but just one with a little more control              Rest days cant be changedgggrr
Today I just finished my first half marathon using this application and training program The good The training program by Hal Higdon is great no injuries I combined the plan with resistance training and I managed to finish on 14744 with an average pace of 813 Mi Seriously the program works I loved Hal Higdon comments while you run they kept me motivated The GPS is accurate I always compared it against the Nike GPS and distances reported were very close or almost the same Is stable I never had a crash with the application You can see the splits and put comment on each workout easy to access The bad I base my comparison against Nike GPS which is were I store most of my workouts Sharing on Facebook is broken the link doesnt point to your workout but a link to download the app Seriously no link to my workout map The app asked me several times for a ration but when I tried to enter it the popup just disappeared Lame The Basic TrainingPeakscom website stats are no better than the Nike maps website For 10 I would expect to have more features enabled NikeGPS is less than 5 The app doesnt have an option to work indoors like NikeGPS If you have to run on a treadmill then youre doomed The app doesnt remember the nonworkouts days only the races registered on the GPS I will give the app a 4 to 5 starts if the developers make it better than NikeGPS it has 3 starts because Hal Higdon program works           Average application but the training program is great
I do love the app started with the couch to 5k one then moved to this one Both get the job done but I was severely disappointed in the fact that this app forces you to start on a Monday Obviously I used my own schedule but it was really annoying that the dates were off All I needed was to shift the start date to a Sunday and it would have been perfect           Good not great
I love the affirmations while Im running                 Awesome
What a great tool for me as a beginner Having no athletic background and no knowledge on how to take care of myself for a challenge like this is priceless Great tips and love the cheering from Hal while running Recommend to all                 Dont Stop You got this
Save your cash and download one of the free running apps available This app is not flexible at all The icon showing the time until the race got stuck on the 5K spot and hasnt moved My workouts did not log correctly and you cant log your work outs unless you follow their schedule Long story short save your money and your sanity     This app is a terrible waste of money
this app has helped me to properly train for 3 half marathons it kept me on track helped me to really visualize my progress and best of allprepared me for raceday i have not moved up to a more advanced training program no plans to so this app will be a staple for me for years to come                 exceptional
Would have loved this a lot more if there was a pacer on this If there was a treadmill setting And if there was push notifications with motivations        8 bucks too much
It got me trained and through my first half and now its working wondering on training for half 2              Soooo happy with this app
I use this app to train for my first half marathon and I loved it I am about to start using it again to train for my 2nd I love the encouraging words I hear while on my run Great app                 Great app
Love his little interjections throughout the runs They keep me moving and put a smile on my face                 Great app
Youd think a 10 app would be awesome Its really bad It should be 1 Just go to his website and print out the training sheet for free I am truly disappointed     Do not buy
Like other reviewers I was really annoyed with the lack of flexibility on the start date It also randomly deletes my workout and will switch from a day being marked complete back to not completed Very very annoying especially considering I paid 10 for this piece of junk If it were free I wouldnt complain but when you spend that kind of money on an app it should at least allow you to feel a little accomplished with your complete days adding up But instead you look down and see only one complete day in a week when youve logged something every day WOULD NOT RECOMMEND wish I could get a refund        Way too expensive to have so many issues
Love it Everything I need for a first timer halfmarathon trainer                 GREAT
After a few weeks of using this app Ive concluded that this isnt worth 10 The cons of this app are 1 If you are more than 3 months out from your race it doesnt add additional training time 2 You cant adjust the scheduled training to accommodate changes 3 The motivating messages repeat and are a little annoying 4 It doesnt have a map to show your route 5 Its features are not as robust as other running apps out there Other apps show everything in one place and make it easy to compare your training runs Id suggest saving your money and trying apps like runtastic or map my run     Just ok
I cant log my workouts This is difficult to use Wish I wouldnt have paid for this app     Very frustrating
I used this last spring for my first 12 It worked great I am using it again to train for my next 12 this fall I found the second time around to really use those cross training days for weight lifting It made me so much stronger and my runs easier He is a great coach I highly recommend this program                 Terrific app
For an app that costs ten bucks it leaves much to be desired Most frustrating for me is that there is no feature that allows for a treadmill training day Like other reviewers have said if it were free whatever But for ten dollars one expects more Ill go back to Nike        Disappointed
Follow the program And you progressively surprise yourself                 It works
Waste of money Not flexiblewont allow me to substitute cross training on a rest day Also crashed on my long run Very frustrating Unimpressed especially given the cost     Very frustrating app
Really good app I like his little motivators he says throughout the runs                 Awesome
I downloaded the halfmarathon app on recommendation from a friend Im currently almost four weeks into the program Immediately I found the schedule on the app confusing and easy to mess up Also the GPS on this app does NOT work on a track at all and yet the free Apple Health app does go figure There are a lot of free halfmarathon training schedules online including on Hal Higdons website Id recommend finding a schedule that works best for you and your fitness level download a free app like Map My Dog Walk if you want to keep a log of your progress and skip paying 999 for this one There is just not enough here to make it work it           Meh
Got this a couple years ago and prepared me well Then proceeded to be a couch potato afterwards Im at it again and its still great half way through Some new features but its simple layout remains Went through the newer apps and while Ill admit are cheaper dont think they stack up to this                 Still Great
Wish that Id read the other review before purchasing I didnt even think that I needed to because the Hal Higdon name is so wellrespected in the running community but this app is really only good for seeing what your training schedule should be I couldve looked that up online and put it in my calendar if Id known thats what Id be getting The pace is constantly jumping up and down during my run which is at a pretty steady pace and I cant delete a journal entry without deleting ALL of them Also if I accidentally record a run on the wrong date when I correct the date which was NOT easy to figure out then that initially selected date still shows that I completed a workout on that day even when there are absolutely NO journal entries associated with it This is the most that Ive ever paid for a running app and its probably the worst one that I have     Cant Believe I Paid for THIS
This ap was a huge let down for the price For 10 I would expect a little more than this The 5K Runner aps are way better and cost much less I wish I could get my money back for this Lame     Lame Ap
Ive used this app for two half marathons I loved it and think its a great training tool Im using it once again for my 3rd half I do wish I could change the long run days or adapt to my schedule Sometimes I have to change my cross or rest days to a run day and although the app allows you to log training independently it doesnt let you show the training as a run will still say rest day etc Also wish the run calendar line showed the actual date not just week day Finally on my last run the gps wasnt calculating my distance Ive never had that issue before I had to leave the app open and running screen on to keep it working It was not like that before Totally drained the batterymaybe something in my settings is not right All in all a great training guide the overall concept and journal are helpful Some kinks so 10 a little pricey but it was worth it for mea good training guide that helped me through my half marathons successfully              Nice app overall
Two weeks into the program and Im hooked My friend followed the full marathon program and loved it and now I know why Awesome awesome for running outdoors because of the gps enabled features that tell you when youve hit a mile halfway point and have audio encouragements scattered throughout the run Love love Highly recommend for any experience level                 Amazing
I have always used Map My Run so I was used to pace counting with each mileI like the gradual mileage increase and cross training mixture but for 10 I wish there was a treadmill adjustment as all my mileage had been on the mill thus farI am 2 weeks into the training plan and think I would try another plan for my next 12 marathon        Average
I like the training schedule but agree that it is frustrating trying to swap training days especially if you run on a cross training or a rest day Also wish that I wouldnt get the message from Hal that youre almost finished When Im only 1 mile into a long run Minor issues with an overall good app              Mostly great
I just completed the rock an roll half in New Orleans and this app got me ready I loved Hals motivational thoughts during my runs I am ready for the next one and grateful that I am back in shape                 Well prepared
I like the app and using it for my first 12 marathon One thing that needs to be fixed is the pause and Avg pace calculation If you hit pause it acts like it pauses the time but it really doesnt The avg pace calculated at the end of your run doesnt care if you pushed pause or not It calculates total time from when you start your run till you hit end even if you hit pause to tie a shoe or take a bathroom break For a 9 min pace run it showed an Avg pace of 145 minutes even though I pushed pause while taking a break That needs to be fixed              Good but needs Avg Pace fixed
Run schedule is brilliant GPS and music are inconsistent Same track with same start place on same distance runs are vastly off Music does whatever it wants              Good runs mediocre GPS
This app is amazing It is definitely for beginners but I went from being a complete nonrunner to doing things I never thought I was capable of like completing two half marathons this month Thanks Hal                 Perfect motivator
Would like to be able to have runs on treadmill count for run days When using the run part of the app it doesnt timekeep up with distance that you run Have to manually put it in              Good app
I thought that by paying 10 bucks for this app I would get a 10 quality app This app is useless even if it was for free When you press start the app doesnt start you can be walking run of or even on the treadmill already moving If you do actually get it to come on when your done with a workout you cant get it to stop So a 3 mile run has you logged in for an hour I literally had to shut my phone off in order for it to stop So I figure let me just manually log on my workouts thats a total waste of time too because it doesnt save them even after you sync with a PC No matter how many times I go back and log workouts they dont save This was a total waste of my money the only thing it is good for is to be used as a training schedule but you can find that for free online Dont buy it which many other reviews said and I should have listened     Trust the review not worth it
