Best 5K trainer out

Gamify all of the things.... but seriously following the storyline makes me regret the rest days in between episodes.
The encouragement and support from the characters makes it almost feel like they are actually watching and helping you train I really feel part of this imaginary world that appears around me every time I go for a run
and the exercises built in between the walk/run legs are a stroke of genius really adding interest and awareness to the way movement feels, I love skipping down the road because doctors orders 😉 who cares if anyone is watching it’s great fun

Big deal

I hate running. With a passion. This app makes me want to get out running...that’s a big call

Good Content, Bad App

The content of this app is really good quality, and really helped me improve my fitness. However, the app itself is awful to use. It’s so slow to open, and almost impossible to scroll across through the training modules. This makes it incredibly frustrating to use, which just makes me want to find another app. I wouldn’t recommend it unless they fix these issues.
