What is Runsy
Runsy is an AI running coach for iPhone that plans every week of training around your goal, your runs and your schedule. It builds your training from workouts and metrics in Apple Health. The app is designed for runners training for an event, a faster run or everyday fitness.
How to use Runsy
- Download Runsy from the App Store on your iPhone.
- Grant Runsy access to Apple Health so it can read your workouts, heart rate, VO2 max, resting heart rate and body weight.
- Set your goal: choose an event (5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, match, hike or other big day), a faster run, or everyday fitness.
- Runsy generates a training plan that works back from your event date or builds four-week blocks for speed, or holds your volume for fitness.
- Follow the weekly plan. Each session includes details like distance, duration, pace and notes.
- Log your runs and other activities. Runsy reads them from Apple Health and links them to planned sessions.
- If you miss a session, Runsy adjusts the plan and links the missed session to a later run.
- Use the coach chat for guidance and feedback.
- See your plan before you pay. A real first week appears in about a second, built from your runs.
