It’s been showing most of the day but now it’s just Runkeeper 😢. (Good job I’d put my last taper runs in my diary).

Yes I noticed myAsics desktop pushed to runkeeper today, but my phone myAsics app still kept my HM plan and i was able to input a time. I've copied screen grabs of my October plan into my Evernote app to be safe :)

I was too slow to do that! I just have my printed plan copy and my diary full of data. Next plan will be using Runkeeper, until I have to start paying for it, when I’ll start looking to see what’s around.

At least you have your printed plan! I can't use the free runkeeper either because I already had an email address with runkeeper from an earlier trial I did, and it is only available to new members from Asics it seems. Need to look for some new plans for next year.

ASICS was sooo easy.

I already had a Runkeeper account, which I’d not used since 2016. It was the basic one, not a trial, and still live but I’ve got the free trial only on my phone. Apparently I’ve got this free Runkeeper until end Sept 2019. It might come in handy as, should I want to do another marathon, it will take me to the week before the date of said next marathon. Being optimistic here as still to do the first one!

Mine disappeared yesterday afternoon when I tried to get on there

I’m using RunkeeperGo now, and have been for a while, since being given it free for a year It’s ok and seems quite stable It doesn’t seem to suggest tweaks, not that I've noticed

This is a very timely post! I've been using the free Runkeeper for years but have been tossing around paying for the premium version for the training plans. If you had to pay for it misswobble , do you think it is worth it? After this next trail race in a couple weeks, I've been tossing around training for the Hypothermic Half in February. Are you able to adjust your run days as you go? Or if you miss a run day can you make it up a different day? I can't consistently run the same days every week due to my work and on-call schedule so I don't know if it is better to find some pdf plan to follow and change on the fly instead of using the app if it is too rigid.

It appears rigid at first view, but after two 24km runs where my phone died both times, i was annoyed to see that the whole run has been marked with a cross which means “not completed”. I fiddled with it and managed to mark it complete so,it,showed a tick. However it was still short You can input the run manually,which I did the first time my phone died, luckily I had the stats from my Garmin. You can then delete the short run I am a gimp at such things but i got there

The help desk is pretty good, so far.

Their plan is hard Mind you I am always behind the pace but am not hurrying up since I fell and hurt myself last week I want to get to the start line in one piece.

I'd forgotten about that as I did my 10k race Sunday and done nothing since. App still working with my old plan in it. I wonder what would happen if I tried to put a new plan in it? Has anyone tried that?

I couldn’t as the whole thing just changed to Runkeeper later on yesterday. I was still logged into My Asics on my iPad but it only gives me RK.

Why not try and see?

No joy - just keep getting a server connection error. I can still view my old plan though.

As I have no new target I guess I don't need to create a new plan, yet...
