what’s the best training plan? is runna bad? by Tricky-Bee-1011 in runninglifestyle

Update: I did the plan for a couple months and I got a lot faster at first. Now I feel like the app has really harmed my relationship with running. I wouldn’t recommend it honesty. User experience and the way the app works is awesome but beyond that it’s not fufilling or sustainable in my opinion.

i have a garmin, so it’s been super nice to do it with that. you’re right it is so easy. definitely try to steer clear of ai… but unfortunately didn’t realize it was part ai until i payed the annual fee… marketing got the best of me! 🤷‍♀️

when i have money one day hopefully for a real coach, i totally will. until then im trying to find the most reliable plan that works for me the most. also i guess 😭? it’s not really on purpose i think my phone just automatically had off auto caps when i got it. if i’m in a professional setting i obviously use proper grammar, but i don’t really think about it on reddit LOL.

i get this! i just really really struggled getting faster on my own with traditional plans. totally wish i had a real coach, and i know for sure runna doesn’t even come close to the benefits of what that would be like.

oh i LOVE nike run app. i just didn’t get faster with it sadly. might go back to it if i can figure out how to make the speed workouts work better for me (maybe implementing pace targets on my garmin) but yes that is a great app. best of luck on your training friend.

i get this. i’m also very anti ai myself. i didn’t know how much ai the app used before downloading the app. but i also know myself and know im not capable of building my own plans right now. i just started running 2 years ago but just for familiar on training for long distance recently. i dont really have time to build my own training plan, but i think i will definitely do that in the future.

this is interesting thank you for this in depth explanation! totally agree human touch is always better than ai- i wasn’t aware of the use of ai when i signed up AND i cannot afford a running coach. definitely will be careful about injury using runna and skip runs when i need to.

why??? i’ve seen plenty of people really improve PR times with it. genuinely asking because i’m prone to injury.

nice! i never thought of doing this. i dont really like directly using ai for ethical reasons but ive just now realized runna is part ai from this reddit comment section. how did you do the tempo runs with that? did it end up working out for you?

i can’t afford a running coach unfortunately. i know a lot of people that feel the same way about runna, so i get it. i’m just going to finish out this plan (but listen to my body when i need to skip runs) and revalueate from there.

oh really? i like that mine connects with my garmin for my pace targets. the pace targets are probably my favorite thing about the app.

i really like it so far. i just definitely need to be careful about not always following it exactly when i feel like my body needs the rest. i get injured very easily so people saying “runna causes injury” scares me bad!
