Over the next 8 weeks your running will be steadily improved. You will start with 1 minute jogging intervals in-between 1.5 minute walks. As you complete runs your body will be strengthened and the program will slowly become more challenging. You will be on your 5K run before you know it!
Take your device with you on your runs! Listen to your favorite music and get prompted over your headphones to run or walk. Your entire run will be directed through your headphones or speakers.
Glancing at the app while on your run will show you:
- How long you have been running
- How much time you have left on your run
- how much time you have left on your current interval
Need to stop and tie your shoe? Pause the run! Or, press Back/Next to go to different intervals.

App quits on me all the time
ChicagoSportsFanDavid
The app consistently quits on me in the cool down phase. Don’t waste your money.
IPhone bugs

On my Android I never had a problem with this app. Now despite buying premium, it doesn’t track my runs and glitches in the middle, stopping or restarting the time. Fix the bugs please!
Not impressed
bclinr
Bought the premium Verizon thinking it would run better and no commercials. Absolutely horrible. Have to leave the app open with screen on for it to actually work and sometimes it would freeze when left open and screen on. Don’t buy or download. Waste of time
Keeps crashing

I’ve moved onto another app because this one keeps crashing during my runs.
Worthless

What’s the point of an interval training app that won’t tell me when the intervals start and stop? Had to delete so I can find an app that works for me.
It closes when I lock my phone.

It closes and then it stops the run. So when I open the app to see why I’m not hearing the alerts I realize it’s because it has exited the run.
Crashed after upgrading to Pro
bumblebre80
App worked great for first 2 runs so I upgraded to Pro to take advantage of the other perks like tracking my runs. Voice prompt chimed in over my music to tell me when to run or walk and it was great. On my 3rd run app crashed when my phone locked and canceled out my current run. Voice prompt only worked when the phone was unlocked which isn’t practical on a run outside. I’d love to figure out how to get my $4.99 back.
