So far, so good!

Started using this app and program last week, and so far so good! The app could be a bit more intuitive but it definitely gets the job done! I’m enjoying having a coach to give me feedback and love not having to come up with a training plan myself. Will update this review in a few weeks when I’ve used it more.

Great training app for trail and road runners alike

I began using Vert 8 months ago when I decided to start training for a road marathon. The training plan and coach have been super helpful with advice on balancing training with work, managing training while recovering from an injury, and overall broadening the running exercises in my training arsenal. An additional aspect of the app that I have found to be helpful is the “Community” tab. You can post on this feed and and see what other Vert users are up to. This is really great and adds a sense of camaraderie to reaching your running goals.

Overall, would recommend Vert to anyone looking for a personalized training plan at an affordable price point.

App for the win!

I was already using the web version of Vert to train for my first 50k. The addition of the app really elevated my experience! Being able to access my workouts & coach’s comments easily from the app has been a great improvement. Finished my first 50k this weekend and would recommend Vert Run to anyone wanting to train for an ultra!!
