mimi_shugz,
really great for all levels!!
i used Run With Hal to train for my self-directed marathon when i was 15, having ran my first half marathon prior, the app helped me continue on to the next level while encouraging healthy rest before starting my next plan and reminding me of the importance of rest days and cross training. since then i have taken a break from consistent running and have just started back up 2 years later, with the intention of getting back into shape before training for my next race. Hal’s motivational notes at the end of each run are so encouraging, and the adaptability of the training plans is so helpful in making the goals feel attainable. i would definitely recommend the paid version even though the free version is great, i trained for the marathon using it, the paid version has so much helpful insight like cadence and other stats, and having the ability to really adjust the schedule has been really important at this time in my life. thank you so much Hal!!
amb2269,
Could be better
I really like the idea of this app. It’s easy to use and I like that there are descriptions for each workout. I’ve run 7 marathons (and probably 30 halfs) using pretty much the same plan and am looking to follow a new plan while training for my 8th marathon after having a baby last year. However, I’m only a week in and struggling with the inflexibility of the app. For whatever reason, it scheduled a long run on a Wednesday even though I said I could only do long runs on Sundays. It also doesn’t allow any flexibility or modification for weather. Right now, NYC is in a heat wave and I simply can’t hit the paces the app says I should for tempo runs. If I adjust, it “grades” me lower. If I run even .2 of a mile more or less than what is called for, the app also “grades” me lower. I know several running coaches and many would recommend slowing in response to weather. Yes, consistency is super important in training for a marathon, but the inflexibility in this app makes it almost unusable. I also feel like the mileage per week is all over the place - some weeks high, some weeks low. Lastly, I wish this app took into account past running history. I’ve run many races and having been running 2-3 times per week before starting the plan. I feel like the plan from this app just makes up a schedule and paces out of nowhere. Not sure I’ll continue to use it.
Jankadoodle,
Not There Yet
Hal's plans are great, and the app should be about helping you choose, schedule, and track the best plan, which it does kinda. The plans are inflexible: if you want to make a change, you have to delete the whole thing and start over-- except you can't delete it, it's archived. The archive is where you keep your completed plans, but since you can't delete anything, you have all of your completed plans with all of your trashed plans. There's no way to "look at" at a plan without creating it, so you create it, realize you want to adjust something, trash that plan and then you have to go back and REENTER all of the info. It's a mess. I haven't tried all the plans, but there doesn't seem to be help on how to progress. For example, I completed a novice 5K plan and wanted to try an intermediate plan: the longest run in the novice 5K was 3.1 miles, of course. When I created a 5K intermediate plan, the second workout is 7 miles. How are you supposed to run 7 miles in intermediate if you have never run 7 miles in novice? Run With Hal seems great for training you for a specific race at the level you are currently at, but there's nothing there to help you progress from level to level-- which is what the app should be good for given that the plans are free on Hal's website.
ccMan,
Great But…
First the good points. I started using this app and the plan it gave me looked to be very difficult to keep with. I decided to push myself though and found my body responding in ways that it hadn’t in many years and I was very excited about that. I basically doubled the amount of running that I have done over the last 10 years or so. Now the bad: I was surprised at how difficult the training program was. There’s no way that it could seem to take into account that I am 54 years old and might be prone to knee or shin splints or anything like that. The other thing was that when it gave me a grade it said that I did not follow the program completely and gave me a D. This was after I pushed myself and had only run a little less than the plan. I had pushed harder than I have since I was a walk on for my team for 3 years in college. And was very proud of my progress and thrilled with the app. I actually was getting fatter and lost weight. But the negative grade was such a letdown. So this was very discouraging and made me really not want to open the app again. No one wants to work hard and be told they are failing by someone who has offered help. There is also no flexibility on the plan like other users said. No changing or adapting.
Hibbster92,
App Needs Work (follow plans on paper)
I’ve read most of Hal’s books by now, and have a good understanding of his training plans. I’ve ran 3 marathons, but have never tapped into my full potential. I found this app to be incredibly frustrating on many levels. There is no flexibility or ability to adjust dates or make edits. The app schedule doesn’t even mirror the schedule Hal outlines for his program (intermediate 2). So what’s the point if it doesn’t even match his training plan? Cross training was on Thursday’s, and had me doing 3 long runs in a row. (For reference, Hal wants cross training on Mondays with longer run Thursday, rest Friday, and two longer runs on Saturday & Sunday). After emailing support they told me nothing could be done, but I could log the runs on different days but this would throw off my running “grade”). Even with 100% availability during the week I couldn’t get my weekly schedule to match his 18 week schedule. I ended up just putting all the runs on my phone calendar and will run them without the app. If they can invest money to make this more intuitive I will be back. Right now it’s just not working.
Little Miss Fearless,
Great for my 10k beginner plan. Just one ask please…
I’ve used Hal’s training plans for years so I was thrilled to see he had an app as well. I love my current beginner 10k plan (I took some time off from running for a knee injury so having the option to lay a new foundation at my own pace has been great!), however, I started using the app 5+ months before my planned 10k race and the app only shows me the first 3 months of the plan. Even if the plan changes or adapts as I log each run, I’d still like to see the whole plan up to the date of my race, not just the first 3 months of it. Some of the other features are a bit clunky, for example, if I have a rest day in my plan, I still have to log it but the only way to log it is to say “I didn’t run.” I’m prob sensitive but that makes me feel like I missed my run as opposed to choosing to rest. I’d like the option to select “rest day.” Overall, for what I use it for, the app is great and meets my needs. Excited to see how they implement feedback for improvements going forward.

Solid training app with little to lack
I have been using Hal’ training program for years, it has been my go to. Any time I had a run to train for I would pull up the Hal training chart for whatever distance I was running. If I had friends who wanted to start running I would refer them to Hal’s charts. During Covid my soul kinda died. With no in-person races happening running was no longer a way of my daily life. My husband suggested I sign up for an in-person race and I found my drive again. I logged on to get my training and saw that there was now an app! I love it! It takes the guess work out and I don’t have to figure out my training plan. I love how it adjusts and adapts to my progress. My only issue is the cross train days. I would love to have an option to log some other cardio on those days. This is my only complaint with this app. Hal has always had an amazing program, but cross train days weren’t more miles outside of the app.
Taurina 262,
Lots of glitches
At first, I loved this app. But a few weeks in, I started to notice a few issues. About 10 weeks into my plan, I was forced to start a new training plan because the app no longer took into account my preferred days for running. Technical support told me there was nothing they could do so I had to archive the progress I had made up to that point and start again. The new plan I created didn’t take into account the progress I had made so it gave me shorter and easier runs than if I had stuck with the original plan. Then I noticed that Hal’s post-run “commentary” didn’t match my performance. So even though I would meet or exceed that day’s workout, Hal’s commentary would say I hadn’t completed the workout (or I had cut it short) and that would mean my score would be affected. Another annoying issue—it doesn’t have the option to enter a 10-mile race as part of your race schedule. The 10-mile distance is not listed. I had so much hope in this app!! But as time goes by, I am finding it less and less appealing. Hopefully these technical issues can be solved in future versions.
KissmeKate!,
Bad Running App
I bought this because I had heard so many good things from a friend who has used his run/walk approach. I can’t tell if the app facilitates this element of his approach at all. You cannot set it to give you intervals as far as I can tell. I have been a runner in the past, I am back at it after taking a break from an injury. I have put in my current pace which is only 14 minutes a mile and I’m barely covering 3 miles a week. It recommended for my first bass run a nine minute mile pace for one and a half miles. What? I sent the app a question about this never heard anything back from them. I thought, it must be adaptive, so I sit out on my run today using that as my first base run, when I got back, the app is no longer open anymore, despite my phone being on a lock screen the entire time, and it didn’t even save my run!! It’s as if I didn’t even go today! Which doesn’t seem like that big of a deal except when you are having a hard time initiating a Running program again, and it fails to even record your first attempt. I’m canceling my paid subscription and finding something better!
Sunsparks,
Inflexible app, poor UI
Every marathon/half/ultra I’ve ever run has followed a Hal Higdon plan. As others have stated, the lack of flexibility is a dealbreaker. I could get past the poor UI (ex- it is difficult to tell which day you are looking at- seems like the days of the week should move carousel style like the daily workouts do) if the app functioned well, but not being able to do simple things like switch my run days around makes this a no go. Yes, in a perfect world I would always do my workouts on the optimal day but sometimes life happens and you need to switch things up. I connected my app to my garmin but the cross training data I uploaded seems to be parsed strangely/incorrectly, making it pretty useless. Perhaps the pay version remedies some of these things, and I’m not opposed to paying for an app but nothing in my experience with the free version makes me think the paid will be any better (and it’s not especially clear how the paid version works- a more thorough explanation of features/benefits could be helpful here).
