Training that adapts to you

Most apps hand you a rigid schedule and wish you luck. Built To Run analyses your actual running history — distance, pace, heart rate, consistency — and builds a programme matched to your current fitness. Miss a week? It recalculates. Crush your targets? It progresses you faster. Every week is tailored, every session has purpose.

📊

Learns Your Fitness

Analyses your runs from Apple Health or Strava to understand your current ability — pace, endurance, and consistency.

🔄

Adapts Every Week

Your programme recalculates after every run. Fall behind, and it adjusts. Get ahead, and it challenges you more.

❤️

Heart Rate Aware

Uses heart rate data to understand true effort — so an easy 5K and a hard 5K aren't treated the same.

Works with your existing setup

Built To Run pulls your running data automatically — no manual logging needed. Just connect your account and your training history is there.

Apple Health

Syncs directly with Apple Health on your iPhone. Captures runs from Apple Watch, Garmin, Polar, COROS, and any device that writes to HealthKit.

Strava

Connect your Strava account to import all your activities. Heart rate, pace, distance — everything syncs seamlessly.

Five goals. Your choice.

Whether you're training for your first 5K or chasing a marathon PB, Built To Run creates the right programme for your goal.

🏃

Weekly Distance

Hit a consistent weekly mileage target with smart scheduling and catch-up plans when life gets in the way.

🏁

Race Preparation

Periodised training through base, build, race-specific, and taper phases — adapted to your fitness and race date.

Pace Improvement

Get faster at any distance with structured speed work, tempo runs, and intervals calibrated to your current VDOT.

🎯

First Distance

Build up to a distance you've never run before — from couch to 5K, or from 10K to half marathon.

💪

Base Building

Establish a consistent running habit with gradual progression. Perfect for returning runners or building a foundation.

How it works

Choose your goal type, target distance or race, and when you want to achieve it. Built To Run assesses your current fitness from your running history.

2

Follow your programme

Each week you get a personalised schedule — the right mix of easy runs, long runs, tempo, and intervals for where you are right now.

3

Watch it adapt

As you train, the programme evolves. It tracks your progress, recalculates your plan, and keeps you on the optimal path to your goal.
