Running Coach

PurposeA personal running coach that builds your weekly training plan around your goal race, your schedule and your other training, then adapts it from your real runs. It can connect to Strava (API for subscribers, or a free browser login) to pick up runs automatically, and keeps you going with records, streaks, weekly challenges and a monthly recap.
