Helped me get ready for NYC Marathon

Katie Shmidt on

United States

I don't have many opportunities to run outside, let alone run the actual NYC Marathon course to prepare for race day. The RunBetter App can be used on ANY treadmill and you can run any of the courses they have from all over the world. It's very simplistic, yet effective. You choose what course you want to run, then the app tells you when to adjust the incline on your treadmill based on where you are in the course virtually. I felt so much better prepared for the hills of the NYC course after using this app.

Much Needed Tool

Couldn't have trained for Boston without this app. Was shocked to find it even existed, but I'm so happy it did. Such a smart idea! Will definitely use it again for other races on the app.

Great for those who travel to a race

I’m running the New York City Marathon in the fall. I wanted a way to train the course before race day, but I'm not able to get to NYC before then. I was amazed when a friend told me about this app. Now I can train the NYC course on my treadmill. It has been extremely helpful for this runner. I will definitely use it for other races I run in the future- they have so many on the app!

Update: Great support!

I want to update my last review. The RunBetter team was super quick to respond and fix a bug that kept me from using some courses. Very responsive and it got fixed quickly. The app is so helpful for someone like me that can only drive to a hilly area on weekends and makes preparing for hilly races much easier. I love that you can run the full course or a specific section. Happy running!

Great App for indoor Training

jkur0810 on

I started using this app when I was training for a race and the temps started to drop. The Run Better App had the course of my race on their platform, and I was able to set my treadmill up to the course. This app helped me get a PR on my race and I think it’s because I was able to virtually train on the course. I definitely recommend for any runner looking for an extra push.

Run with a purpose!

Until using RunBetter, I never wanted to use the incline on treadmills at the gym. After using the app to train for the New York City Marathon I can't imagine running at a 0 degree incline again. I also didn't realize how many sneaky little hills there were on the route and using the app I was able to prepare accordingly! One other great benefit is it shows (albeit small) the actual incline, so when it's showing to set your incline to 0, the actual incline might be -1. This is nice if you are lucky enough to own or find a treadmill at the gym that has this feature. I do wish it showed the incline profile along with the elevation profile but overall a great app!

Great app for treadmill training

I downloaded this app to help me train for Big Sur (BSIM) and I loved everything about it. It was easy to navigate and it helped when I needed to train indoors. I was also able to use it for CIM. Love that it has multiple courses to choose from!

Lets you train the right terrain...from anywhere!

Imagine you’re trying to train for the hills of the NY Marathon but you live in a flat city. Enter the RunBetter App. It has tons of real life race courses you can train from your treadmill. All you need is the app!

The only way I will get on a treadmill

Love the guidance and courses. Helps prepare me for hills and also extremely useful when running outdoors isn’t an option.

Can’t See Features Until You Subscribe

Saw this on the Big Sur website so I downloaded the app, but can't see any information about how the treadmill workouts are done. Went back to the App store and I can't even see screen shots of how it works. Don't see a free trial option. I'm not going to move forward with a subscription if I can't see what I'll be getting so I can be sure it works for me. Too bad.
