Description

Run 10km (6.2 miles) with this simple series of interval workouts designed to gradually build your endurance. The Run 10k app is perfect for beginner runners and former runners who want to start up running again. This app keeps track of your workout progress and has built-in voice prompts to coach you through each workout.

The program follows a 3-days-a-week workout schedule over 13 weeks, alternating walking and running intervals for each workout.

If you're not sure about a 10k or would like to start with a 5k, you can train first with our Run 5k app and then switch to Run 10k when you're done. Start around Week 5 in the app to continue your training.

Run 10k was created by Lucius Kwok and Kasten Searles. Made in NYC.

* Each workout lasts close to an hour, plus a 5-minute warmup and 5-minute cooldown.
* Alternate between jogging and walking intervals for each workout.
* Intervals gradually become more challenging to build your running endurance.
* Full program takes 13 weeks, but you can start at any point.
* Female, male, or beep prompts tell you when to jog and when to walk.
* Prompts at the halfway mark and 1-minute-left mark.
* User-friendly display showing time elapsed, total time remaining,
and time remaining for each interval.
* Checks off and tracks the date of each completed workout.
* Use it with your own playlists - music, podcasts, or other audio.
* Use it along with Nike+ to track your distance.
* Built-in music controls so you don't have to leave the app to change
your music.
* Option to update Facebook and/or Twitter at the end of each workout.

Customer Reviews

Great! (4 stars)
Only thing missing is integration with a gps running program like runkeeper.

When's my next run? (5 stars)
I've been using this app to get back into running shape and at week five, when the intervals start to increase, I'm actually loving it! Overall I feel stronger and generally so much better.

I did workout two days in a row (busy week) and man did the second day hurt. Suggest trying to space out the days if you can.

A small glitch I found is I can't seem to skip a song using the smaller controller on my headphone wire. I have

Love love love (5 stars)
This app totally changed my life! I stopped for a few weeks because of holiday chaos and started where I stopped and I was fine! Love this app. I got in shape and after the runs it was easier for me to resist bad foods! Totally worth the two dollars!
