Running data?

How do I get running data from the app ? I have just finished W1R3 and loving it! However I’d like to know pace and distance covered for each run - does the app do this or do I need to use something else? Sorry I’m a bit techno lite as they say!! 😂😂

There is no running data in the app.

You’d need a tracker to do that, and during short intervals it will show you precisely nothing useful. Slow running is best at the moment and they tend to make people try to run faster.

Thankyou... I’m really only wanting to track distance - I’m sticking rigidly to the programme and taking it very easy as I have suffered with ankle and Achilles before.. I’ll use my health app on my phone - just wanted to check I wasn’t being a complete numpty!! Loving the programme and feel very energised - my kids and hubby can’t believe I’m actually doing it but I’m doing it for myself and I’m determined to graduate however long it takes me 👍

Cool..., Nike Run Club, MapMyRun, Runkeeper, Strava and others will track and later more.

I would diwnload the Strava app . It’s free . It will record your distance and pace. Good luck 😀🏃🏻‍♀️
