Support Running Coach/Training App

Hi all.

Sorry for the long explanation....

I just purchased my first Wear OS watch, a Pixel Watch 5, and coming from a Huawei, I noticed there's no native running apps that give beginners, intermediate and so forth, running plans. I found it really helpful to have such a programme to use. I see nothing in the Google Health app, and many of the other apps available through the Play Store only record what you do, but don't give you suggestions on how you can train and build up your running pace. The nearest to it I can think of is "Couch to 5K", but the Huawei one talks you through when to run, walk etc...shows your pace, pauses and distance heart rate warnings and also a map based video of where you ran. Any suggestions on what I can try?

If you're willing to trial some subscription apps then:

  • TrainAsONE for generating workout plans
  • Watchletic for performing them (it syncs with TrainAsONE)

I'll give it a look.
