Half Marathon app advice?

Hi, I’m coming to the end of an app I found which helped me move from 5k to 10K. I can see the next few runs are 60 Mins and then it says you’re ready for the Half Marathon trainer, which is £9.99. I would like to have an app but would probably just work up slowly doing a longer run once a week. I’ve looked and there is a 21k Runner app but not sure whether it goes beyond the first week or if need to upgrade. Does anyone know any decent apps, possibly free? Thanks.

I just discovered polar flow, the web based version let's you configure your training for 5k, 10k, HM... You set up the start date and the finish date and it creates a plan for you. You can see the plan in the phone app, but you cannot create it there... It says it can sit to your progress and also if you miss runs, but I started playing with it so I'm not sure how well it does

Hi, thanks for your reply. Never heard of that one. I’ll investigate. Thank you 👍

Try joining the HU marathon and race support forum. There will probably be lots of names you recognise over there. There's a pinned post which gives links to lots of HM plans and apps where appropriate eg. NRC. There's lots of support and advice over there, including the October Half Marathon training group which have only just started their training. Take a look!

Thank you. I never knew one existed. I’ve only just found this forum. 😂 I’ve seen and Marathon Running one which hopefully is the one you referred to and did recognise one of the names posting on there. Thank you!
