Is there an app out there for distance that doesn’t tell you times I want to try longer runs at my own pace and not have pressure of the time it takes me just the distance. I’m a weirdo I know

In mapmy run you can turn off time and pace and just select distance in the settings.

Of course you can just plot a route on google maps so you know what the distance is without the need of the phone. Running to a point and then turning round and running back works well.

I use mapmyrun too and it works for me when I increased distance. I prefer not to do out and back runs so either plot a loop or get hubby to drop me off and run home! Took a bit of time to work out how to plot on paths not roads 😁

Was going to say map and measure a course online - e,g, gb.mapometer.com/ then run it. No need for a phone! I do use a dedicated (tiny) mp3 player.

I never take a phone with me.

Runkeeper can be set up to just tell you distance as you run eg. 1km or mile.

But I think you still have a time at the end ( which I guess you can then ignore).

I use runkeeper & mute all the stats you dont want to hear...then you can choose to look or not at the end 😊

You are not a weirdo!!! And if you have a Garmin and I’m sure other apps, you can set it to show distance. I’m the past when I’ve been aiming for PB’s I put a bit of tape over the time so I didn’t get stressed about it. That really worked.

Not what you're looking for?
