Do I need an Apple Watch?

No. Without a watch you run each session with the voice guide on your iPhone, which counts the time and measures distance with GPS. With a watch, the week's runs appear in its Workout app by themselves.

How does the plan adapt?

After each week it compares what you ran with what was planned. Missed most of it: the next weeks get lighter. All done and it felt easy: a little more. A fast run or a race moves your training paces, at most 3% a week.

Which goals are there?

Start running (walk/run to 30 minutes), 5K, 10K and half marathon. A full marathon comes later.

Does it record my runs?

No, it plans them. The Workout app on Apple Watch (or any running app that saves to Health) records the run, and Løbeplan reads it from Health on your iPhone. The voice guide keeps only the distance and time of the run you did.

Is it in Danish?

Yes, the app and its voice guide speak Danish and English.
