Good running app

Could anyone recommend a good running app, ideally free, which would measure distance, allow me to pre-design runs and doesn’t drain my IPhone 6s battery flat every time I use it?!?

I’m not looking for watch or Fitbit. Thank you 😊.

I use Strava, you need to use the desktop to use the route design feature. Works well on my 6s and didn’t notice any issue with battery when using
