Hi. Can anyone suggest/recommend a free training app for my iPhone to go from 10K to half marathon? Thanks!

Just increase your long run by 1k to 2k each week and each 3rd or 4th week drop back. Don’t really need a plan.

I love a plan! I have a dread of doing too much, so I run to a plan, so I do enough but not too much. As an older runner I have to pace myself

Plan or not, there is a lovely free app. Nike Run Club. You can download a very good plan, or not, its your choice. You can run free as it were, with the app just giving you the timings and distance count-downs etc. Or you can run with their coaches, which is the bit I adore! Or get a tailor-made running plan which evolves as you go, with tweaks along the way depending on how you're doing

They have all distances and all times. All surfaces and lots of different coaches to keep you company and give fab tips etc Great on longer runs when the going gets hard I've done lots of the shorter runs too, and the intervals, and they even do coached treadmill runs. So plenty for everyone

It stops your music when the coach wants to speak to you. It does that fluidly without your having to do it.

I think it's good for a free app

AudioFuel (of nhs Couch to 5k fame) does various coached runs and there will doubtless be one for you. They are not free however. I've got the marathon one and it's good. The music is like c25k but it works

Good luck
