The original Couch to 5K app hasn't been updated since 2014.
No Apple Health sync. No music ducking. No plans for what to do after you finish. So I built a new one.
Everything a beginner runner actually needs
Four training plans
Zero to 5K free. 10K, faster 5K, and weekly maintenance unlocked with premium.
Four trainer voices
Real recorded voices that cue your intervals. Pick the one that gets you out the door.
Music ducks automatically
Your music dips during cues, then returns to full. Works with Apple Music, Spotify, podcasts.
Apple Health sync
Every workout counts toward your Activity rings. Heart rate during runs.
Streaks and history
Monthly summaries and shareable week-complete cards.
Custom workouts + themes
Build your own intervals. Four color themes to make the app yours.
$7.99. One time. Forever.
No subscription. No ads. No tracking. The 9-week Zero to 5K plan is free forever.

I'm Philip, an indie iOS developer in Sweden. I built Pace after finishing the Couch to 5K program for the third time and getting frustrated with the state of beginner running apps. Pace is the app I wanted to use. I hope you like it.
