The runcoach iPhone app is here!  Download it now!

Note: The latest version is called runcoach.  Version 1 was called
iRunning coach.

Now it's even easier to check and log your workouts on the go! 

This new enhancement is FREE for all runcoach members.  Once you download it, you can use the same username and password to access the mobile site.


We’re excited to announce our latest enhancement – new workout descriptions!

The content of your workouts will not change.  We are just making the workout descriptions easier to understand.  The new format contains an outline that reads like a cookbook and simplifies the times you need to run. Less thinking, more running!

 Your workout descriptions will change in 3 places:

  • Today tab
  • Training tab
  • Weekly/Daily workout emails

Here is an example of the enhancement in action:

FAQ – How do I sync my runcoach training log with Nike+?

We recently integrated with Nike+ to make it even easier for you to keep your training log up to date.  Remember the runcoach workout engine relies on your training log to keep you training at the right level for your goal.  Now you can upload your training data from your, Nike+ shoe app, iPhone or iPod to track mileage, paces, and progress!

Note:  We suggest you sync with Nike+ first, and then add your notes, hours of sleep, heart rate, and other information. If you have updated your log before syncing with Nike+, the Nike+ data will not override it.

Here’s how to get started:

1.  Click on the Training tab

 nike_plus_3



 



 

 

 

 

2. Hover over Options

nike_plus_4
 
3.  Click Sync with Nike+

 nike_plus_2

 4.  Enter your Nike+ username and password

nike_plus_1

 

 














5.  Now that you have synced with Nike+, you can add your notes regarding hours of sleep, heart rate, and other information.  Be sure to click Save/Done when you are finished.
