I have been using RunDot since June 2023. They offered a free trial to see if it was a good fit for me. Being an interval runner I was skeptical as most programs do not cater to this type of running so I figured I would never be able to keep up. Although RunDot does not take intervals into consideration I have gained do much from this program as soon as the trial was over I signed up! It has pushed me out of my comfort zone and I have been able to do so much more than I ever thought was possible. It looks at all your stats and gives you a training program suited to your fitness. It uses pace and heart rate for times training runs. I look forward to using it more and training myself to get better and better. As they say, trust the process it really does work!

I signed up for RunDot in late July to prep for the Black Bear Half Marathon in NC on October 8th (event 3 of the Appalachian Trilogy). The program definitely works! I felt strong and fast during the event and I even PRed with a time of 1:28:45 (it also helped me PR a 5k race a month prior). I had done 3 half marathons earlier in the year before using RunDot and finished all with a time of 1:32. Perhaps the most important thing though is the fact that for this event I was injury free! I’m confident that this was due to the adaptive training sessions and schedule created by RunDot, based on the environment and my performance, abilities, trainability, and genetics. I thoroughly enjoyed and looked forward to each training day, and the gamification aspects of the program make each session exciting in attempting a max score/xp and chasing those elusive unicorns and Pegasuses 🦄. I wholeheartedly trust the process and ideology behind the training structure (strong before long, fast before far) and I will continue using the program going forward. I’m planning on doing my first full marathon in 2024 and I know RunDot will help me crush it! 💪 I can’t recommend the program enough!

Overall a great app. Last year it started pairing with my Apple Watch which makes all the difference! I don’t like having to use two different apps (RunDot and Dot Connect), and both can be a bit glitchy at times. But overall, this program has helped me keep up with my running and provides enough variety in the workouts to keep me from getting bored.
