Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer App Reviews

105 add

Great but would like to be able to customize

Walk run timer. Sometimes an 8 or 10 min session followed by a short walk works better than such short intervals.

Excellent trainer!

Great app! All three of the apps have been great so far.

Got me running

Got me on the road and the easy progression helped to keep me going. Looking forward to the next week stages.

Great so far!

First day, but this seems like its going to be great!

Love this app!

Great motivation!

Great App

I love this app. Easy to use and I like the format of the program. I went with Zen after using their Couch to 5K app and am very pleased with my purchase. I think its worth the money.

Not for current runners

This app is not for people who currently run.

Love it

I am a novice and this has helped me a lot to prepare for my first 1/2 marathon.

Love it.

Great app. Helps to build up stamina. Totally enjoy it.

Great App

Love this app

Disappointed

The app did not ask the date for my half marathon like the free apps do. It also is very easy to mistakenly hit start for the next days workout. The interface should be designed so its not possible. I regret buying this app.

Not exactly for RUNNING a half marathon

Ive been using the 10K program which is good. But I just got the 13.1 to finish off my training for a mini in two months. However, this is significantly different than the 10K program as there is way more walking scheduled as apparently the goal for this is to run/walk a mini, not to RUN a mini. Not what I was looking for...at all.

TERRIBLE. NOT A RUNNING APP

Ive used the 5k and 10k app for years, so naturally I turned to 13.1 for my first half marathon. This does not train you to RUN a half like the other 2 apps do. Instead it takes 14 weeks to run/walk a half. I would love to have my $10 back. Misleading.

Awesome

Love this app!

False advertising- be prepared to walk/run for 13.1

I am very disappointed to have spent 10 dollars on a 1/2 marathon trainer that doesnt actually build up to "running" the whole distance. This app is specifically designed to walk/run the entire 13.1 miles. I loved the 10K app by zen labs, which started as a walk/run program that eventually builds up to the full 10K run. By the final week of the 13.1 trainer, you are running 4 minutes, walking 1 minute for the enter distance. I ended up deleting this app, sadly, after 2 weeks once I realized what I had gotten myself into. This app will be great for you if you want to do a walk/run program!

Caution! No good for actual runners!

This app is not for use by experienced runners. Its designed for those who want to run/walk their first half marathon. Additionally, there is no ability to set a specific race date to train for.

Super easy app

Im currently training for my second 1/2 and wish I had this for my first race. It builds your stamina at a sustainable rate and although it doesnt train you to run the entire race, Im confident that with a little tweaking and race day adrenalin itll work out just fine.

Great

Great app, needs to have pace added.

Fantastic

So Far, I love this app. I am training for my first half- marathon.

Needs improvement, but motivates

For those that hate the 4:1 intervals -- I have used the Galloway program before, and it was all walk/run during training, BUT when it came to my first half, I was able to run the entire time. So dont despair. You can run your whole half of you want, youll be conditioned enough. I do wish it let me set the date of my half, however. That keeps me on schedule. :/ Which, is super important...
