About this app

Just Run is a simple workout app to help you get running. I made this app to get myself off the couch and start running to get to 5K. Stick to the workout plan, and you'll be able to run 5K in 9 weeks. It really does work!

If you're already able to run 5K, Just Run also has a 6-week plan to help you get up to 10K!

Workout Plans
- Zero to 5K: Gets you from absolute zero running experience to 5K in just 9 weeks, with three 30-minute workouts per week
- 5K to 10K: If you can already run 5K, or have finished Zero to 5K, this plan gets you to 10K in only 6 weeks

Features
📅 Target dates for each workout, calculated based on your progress, and optimal exercise days
📣 Choose from multiple trainer voices, which tell you exactly when to run and walk
📱 Lock screen notification so you don't need to unlock your phone to check your progress
🚫 No ads! Ads are no fun, so Just Run has no ads!
🎵 Works with music, audiobook and podcast apps - Just Run will briefly lower the volume of the other app when prompting you to run and walk, so you'll never miss a prompt
🔽 Tiny download (less than 3MB), so Just Run will take up very little space on your device
➕ Upgrade to Premium to get more trainer voices, multiple theme options, and to support continued development of Just Run

I'd love to hear how you're getting on with Just Run. You can email me at run@jupli.com.

Just Run is the successor to Syncostyle's 5K Trainer and B210K Trainer. If you liked those, Just Run will feel very familiar!

This app has all the basics you need for 5k and 10k training without a lot of extra fluff, and the developer continues to improve it with updates. The voice prompts work with other media playing on your device, so not an issue if you want to play music while running. The "premium" version costs $2.99 one time and gives you access to some minor cosmetic upgrades, but all of the functional features of the app are available for free.

A rare find on mobile, an app that just does what it says on the label and does it well. Doesn't annoy you with ads, or bully you to rate it, or try to trick you into trying to enable a "premium feature" so it can have an excuse to give you a sales pitch. If it weren't for a handful of devs like this one making apps that they themselves would want to use, I wouldn't bother with a smartphone at all.

Really great. Absolutely bare bones compared to some other couch to 5k programs but that's all I wanted. It tells you when to walk and when to run and the descriptions are pretty good at hyping me up for the day. Well worth giving the developer a few bucks for premium just as a thank you for a great app, but the free version is perfectly fine if that's all you can afford. By "perfectly fine" I mean basically identical and super.
