About

Start running today — no experience needed! 5K Run takes you from the couch to the finish line in just 9 weeks with a proven walk-to-run interval training plan. Whether you've never run before or you're getting back into it, this beginner running app will guide you every step of the way. HOW IT WORKS Your 9-week training program builds endurance gradually using run/walk intervals: • Week 1: Short 1-minute jogs with walking recovery • Weeks 2–4: Longer running intervals, shorter walks • Weeks 5–8: Extended runs with fewer walk breaks • Week 9: Run a full 5K — you did it! No guesswork. Just press play and follow the audio coach. AUDIO RUNNING COACH Your personal coach tells you when to run, walk, warm up, and cool down — right through your headphones. Play your favorite music from Spotify, Apple Music, or any app and the coach chimes in over your playlist. You never have to look at your phone. While running, see at a glance: • Total elapsed time • Time remaining • Current interval countdown • Live GPS distance Need to stop? Pause anytime. Skip forward or back between intervals with simple controls. GPS TRACKING & STATS Track every run with real-time GPS. See your route on a map, log your distance and pace, and watch your progress improve week by week. After each workout, celebrate with a run summary showing your distance, time, and total runs completed. Sync your workouts to Apple Health to see your running alongside all your other fitness data.
