Personalized Race Training Plans (Android)

*Available with a Runkeeper Go subscription.

Tired of doing the same half marathon plan year after year? Looking for more variety? We hear you! Runkeeper's race training plans were developed with researchers at the ASICS Institute of Sport Science to help you achieve your goals, while enjoying the journey from start to finish.

Already started a plan? We know that your training needs to evolve with your life! See the Change Plan section below for more information on how to make updates to your current plan while maintaining your plan history.

Get Started!

Head over to your Training tab and toggle over from Goals to Training. Select Train for a Race and choose your distance.

Race Date & Race Time

Upon selecting your training plan distance, you'll be asked to select the date of your race and your time goal. After you create your plan, you can always change your race date and goal time, we know that life happens! 

Running History

To accurately create a plan according to your ability, share with us your longest recent run (better to underestimate than to overestimate!)

If you run a marathon, tell us how long it took; again, it's better to underestimate if you don't have that data on hand!

What days do you want to train?

Choose the days on which you want to train, then the app will build your plan using all the info you've given us!

Get on your level!

When you've seen the overview of your personalized training plan, tap the yellow "Finalize My Custom Plan" button on the bottom of the screen!

And there you have it - your personalized running plan!

Reschedule your workouts

Don't want your long runs to be on Sunday this week? Feeling sick or injured and need to push back your Wednesday workout? No worries! You can reschedule the current week's workouts individually by tapping on the small calendar and 'set time' text just below the workout description in the middle of your screen.

Once you've selected the day and time you'd like to do that workout, select 'OK,' and your workout will be rescheduled!

Changing your plan customizations

We understand that life happens! If you need to make changes to your race date, goal time, race distance or recurring schedule you can do so by selecting Settings in the training plan overview and then selecting Change Plan. This will walk you through the personalization questions again so that you can change any or all of the plan customizations. We will save your plan history and update your plan going forward to capture your changes.
