Just Run: Zero to 5K (+10K)

Or rather, I used to hate running? I’ve tried several running apps, but Just Run is the only app that’s gotten me up and out. It’s straight-forward, easy to use and you can choose how hard you want to do the intervals - as long as you do them! And you’ve always got 20 min to spare 2-3 times a week, right? I was initially so bummed when I switched phones in 2022 and it wasn’t available on App store. Imagine my surprise when I checked two months ago and I found it! I got so excited that I told my friends and signed up for a 5 km run in September. It’s going well so far, I just started week 6! Just Run has got my warmest recommendation.

I’ve tried a lot of different c25k podcasts and apps, and this one is brilliant in its simplicity. It follows the original nhs c25k program, it allows for seamless sound integration from any app, and it gives very clear instructions on what to do when. I also like the lock screen feature. Another big bonus is that you can do the 10k program after you did the 5k, especially for someone like me who needs clear cut goals and instructions, along with a lot of predictability, to get out to run. If I have to think about it too much, I just don’t do it, so having the 10k is great for longer runs.

Amazing app, even with the free version, there’s no annoying ads and it works flawlessly. I upgraded and gave a tip cause the value here is incredible. Do not hesitate to download and use this app if you want to start training as a runner. You will love it.

I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best app!!!!!!!!!!!

I have never left a review on the App Store in my entire life, but this app is so wonderful that I felt compelled to. The interface is incredibly clean, straightforward, and honestly a delight to use. It provides just enough information for you to know what’s going on, but not so much that it’s overwhelming. I’m on Week 3 right now, and I’ve loved the experience so far. Thank you so much, developer!

I was going through a lot of change in my life when I started using this app. I was unemployed so I didn’t have money for a gym membership or payed programs. Jogging everyday helped me manage my mood and staying positive through hardship and incertitude. It made me feel that I had achieve something everyday. About to finished week 9 of the program from zero to 5k and starting a new job next week.

I love this app. It is giving me exactly what I need, just an indicator of when I need to warm up, when to run, and when to walk. I like that it is very low profile and doesn’t shout motivations every 3 seconds, waking my neighbors when I run at 7am. Also great interface, just click the next day and run. First app that made me stick to running. C25k actually went too aggressive when I tried it and I got discouraged when I had to keep stopping short. This app seems to take it a bit more easy in week one, so I was able to complete each run. Been using this app for a month and have not missed a run :)

Love this app! I'm a happy premium user. I'd also happily pay extra for an Apple Watch version if they were to develop one. (Pretty please?)

After C25K became paid, I found this. This app has no gimmicks and does what it says. So far super happy with the app and a great substitute to the C25K subscription based app.

This application is beautifully constructed with plenty of valuable functions which allows for a pleasurable experience by the consumer. I, Sauce Packet, personally recommend this application above all others I myself have tried. While, in my adventures, many products have required an unfortunate and uncomfortable add wall, this simply asks politely for a small donation in return for a unique voice pack and a refreshing recoloration. I digress, in short, this is a great running app.
